Today we have several updates that will be coming through with the first being the launch of our new courses. We have always strived to create and deliver the most realistic training possible and not just be another tick in the box company. We are proud that we do not have a single book instructor on our TEAM and that we are made up of individuals from a vast background that work in the industries they teach. With this in mind we have taken our time to expand and get the courses right before marketing them out as training should be about quality and not quantity.
The new courses we are offering are a direct result of feedback received from our students as to what they need to progress in their chosen career at sea.
