Craft Brewing, Packaging, and Service Operations Certificate

The College is interested in seeking candidates to teach in our Craft Brewing, Packaging, and Service Operations Certificate program, in the Fall 2025 semester at our downtown campus. In this certificate program, students gain extensive laboratory and operational experiences during fieldwork in our student-operated brewery and taproom, and through an internship at a brewery or brewing-related operation. Students' coursework, while operating the open-to-the-public brewery and taproom, will focus on fermentation principles such as introductory brewing microbiology, introductory brewing biochemistry, and sensory analysis. Courses include introductory and advanced brewing production, product analysis, product distribution, marketing/sales, taproom management, sensory evaluation, beverage/operations management, and sustainability, and fermentation biology. Other coursework topics are beer and food pairing, hands-on packaging, labeling, merchandising, marketing, operations management, and laws and tax regulations that govern the brewing industry. Upon completion of the Craft Brewing, Packaging, and Service Operations Certificate students will have an understanding of chemicals, wort production, fermentation, temperature, time and mechanical actions used in varied Clean in Place (CIP) processes, centrifugation and carbonation principles, automated brewing systems with Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) interfaces, plant operations and equipment including bulk CO2 distribution, glycol chiller operation, air compressor operation, and steam generation.

A criminal background check will be conducted on all finalists before employment with Grand Rapids Community College. The ideal candidate will have a passion for teaching and a commitment to student success, ensuring a high-quality learning experience for all students. Adjunct needs are determined on a semester-by-semester basis, as are the number of sections offered each semester.
