STCW95 = Standards of Training Certification and Watch keeping for Seafarers

Before you can be employed in any capacity on a yacht as part of a professional crew you need to hold an International Maritime Organization (IMO) certificate that declares you trained for survival at sea.

Our STCW95 Basic Safety Training program consists of 4 Certification Courses over 5 days! This training is very important to your maritime career! This is not just looking at a life raft and playing with a few fire extinguishers... you will be boarding a real life raft in the ocean, navigating through smoke filled rooms with billowing flames and you will really appreciate that you are doing this with guidance of experienced professionals in a well established purpose built facility.

Professional training environment, best quality practices and great prices: you won’t find a better deal anywhere in the world to get your professional yachting career off the dock.
