How is training with us like?
First Shot Barista Training is not only a training center but also a community.
Training with First Shot is very unique. We believe the fun comes from being able to find the job that you love and having the confidence to join the workforce, not taking photos or hyping like other centers. Our training is very intense and focused, coupled with a strict scoring system that covers not only coffee making but also consistent latte art, workflow, customer service, and machine maintenance.
