Regular calibration uses FlavorActiV‘s proprietary proficiency software and Pharmaceutical Quality GMP Flavour Standards to benchmark, troubleshoot and develop individual tasting abilities.
Once the tasting is complete, you need to log your results on our Neutral Spirit Open Proficiency Program software platform. Identify your strengths and weaknesses and hone your skills to track your improvement over time. The Neutral Spirit Open Proficiency Program engine is mobile friendly and can be accessed anywhere in the world. Certification is received for all participants who successfully complete the full 4 round program.
