One of the most important aims of SAAFFI can be summed up as "Training". This can be further defined in the following terms:

  • Attract new blood into the Flavour & Fragrance Industry, and the industries it serves, by encouraging university graduates to take the custom-designed 'Flavour & Fragrance Course @ UJ' (NQF 7)
  • Increase the knowledge of staff already employed in the Flavour & Fragrance Industry
  • Improve the understanding about flavourings and fragrance compounds within the food/beverage and cosmetic/toiletry/detergent industries

To achieve these goals, an assortment of measures is being used:

  • The custom-designed 'Flavour & Fragrance Course @ UJ' (NQF 7)(Read More)
  • Workshops, in particular the Precise Short Training Courses (PSTC)(Read More)
  • The annual seminar
  • Networking evenings

Fuller details of these and other future events are to be found elsewhere on this website.
