A little bit more about the program & what it means.

SCAA Lead Instructors are one of the most crucial categories of volunteers. Industry professionals from around the world have recognized that giving back to the community in this way can be rewarding and valuable to both the instructor and the student. You may have a level of expertise in the industry that makes you a perfect candidate to lead one of the NZSCA/SCAA skill building courses, but subject expertise does not automatically make for an effective instructor. This is what the Instructor Development Program aims to do: identify industry experts and train them how to communicate what they know to a group of people who want to learn. If you feel you have something to give back to the coffee community, becoming a Lead Instructor is one of the best ways to get involved.

Participants who attend the Instructor Development Program (Part I) qualify for the SCAA Lead Instructor Credential, which entitles one to become a Lead Instructor or Assistant Instructor at NZSCA/SCAA events, pending approval by the Professional Development Committee. Furthermore, the Lead Instructor Credential is an extremely useful skill set for those professionals with training responsibilities in their companies. There is no obligation to teach at NZSCA/SCAA events upon achieving the SCAA Lead Instructor Credential. 

With your participation in this program, you have the opportunity to be trained by skilled professionals who have not only coffee skills, but also skills in managing classrooms, designing and leading PowerPoint presentations, and applying principles of adult learning and instructional design. This brings tremendous value to NZSCA courses. Conversely, attendees of the IDP have the opportunity for immediate impact in their own companies. The SCAA Lead Instructor Credential brings professionalism to any trainer’s qualifications, but also provides real skills that are a benefit to any business.
