Gear Up Programmes
Coffee as a platform for confidence building
overview
Our Barista Skills & Hospitality Workshop is a structured, experiential learning programme designed to support the objectives of the Gear Up Programme.
Using barista training as a practical platform, students develop both vocational competencies and critical soft skills such as communication, teamwork, responsibility, and self-confidence.
The programme is carefully scaffolded to provide progressive mastery experiences, allowing students to experience repeated success in a safe and supportive environment.
