November 18: Level 1 Certified Cider Guide Workshop at Bauman’s on Oak
Join us on Monday, November 18, 2024 from 2:00 – 6:00 PM Pacific!
The American Cider Association is excited to collaborate with Bauman’s On Oak to host this Certified Cider Guide Workshop, which includes a tasting experience and certification opportunity.
This workshop is meant for all, and is the first level of the American Cider Association’s in depth international cider education program, Certified Cider Professional.
We have a wonderful afternoon planned including a Certified Instructor led in person training, including an “introduction to sensory evaluation” tasting experience featuring the five cider families. Participants of this workshop will also be able to take the test online immediately after the training or take the test at a later date.
Cost per person is $189 which includes the in person training, instructor led tasting experience, downloadable study guide, cidery tour and online exam fee. Please note that ACA members will receive $50 off registration. Members can find the discount code in the Resource Hub by clicking here.
All are welcome! Please share this event with anyone who sells cider, works in a tasting room or retail shop, chefs, sommeliers, cicerones, buyers and cidermakers who are interested in cider education or in adding a cider certification to their accreditation or cider fans who want to up their cider street cred.
