Studying from Macenta
Macenta is a land of coffee, kola, rubber and oil palm, opening onto Liberia. You follow an IHETC programme online, building the value-chain management, quality and supervision that make a harvest worth more.
Progressing between campaigns
The harvest campaign fully occupies several weeks, then eases. The programme is built for that alternation: modules download in advance, are followed offline in villages and at collection points, and progress is kept intact from one session to the next. You choose the order of modules within the period, and assessment dates, published from day one, are placed outside the busiest weeks. A tutor answers at any hour, in the module you are working on.
Your content, taken with you
A module downloads in Macenta when the network is good, then reads and works offline.
Your exchanges
Per-course forum, group work and peer review, with your cohort and your tutor.
Your proof
A timestamped certificate, with a public verification link an employer opens without an account.
What the harvest becomes
Around Macenta, production is abundant and long established: coffee, kola, rubber, oil palm, rice, plantain and food crops. Trade with Liberia adds a permanent outlet. Yet value is decided after picking: sorting, drying, moisture, grading, packing, building a homogeneous lot and negotiating a price on demonstrated quality. A group in command of those steps sells the same product for more, and that is a matter of method, accounts and collective organisation.

Questions asked from Macenta
Can our group enrol several members?
Yes, with one application per person and a single invoice for the organisation. Each member follows their path at their own pace, each is assessed individually, and every certificate carries its holder's name with its own verification link.
Does the programme cover export sales?
The international trade path covers incoterms, documentation, secure payment, forwarding and the relationship with a foreign buyer. Those are the points where a sale is won or renegotiated, and they are worked on real files.
Do I need a job to apply?
No. Paths address both someone already established and someone preparing to enter a value chain. The real entry level is stated on each programme page, before enrolment.
