The Crew Academy was founded a decade ago solely to provide administrative training to
yacht crew pursers and service training to mid-level interior crew. During this time, our prospectus has grown to offer a progressive and holistic career training pathway for yacht crew at all levels from junior to senior positions. Our courses and programmes are designed around a three-tiered approach that encompasses building effective, empathetic, professional leaders in their respective departments whether that be in service, Housekeeping, Administration, Deck, or Bridge duties. Ethos
Education, self-improvement, and a thirst for learning sit at the core of our ethos. We believe that to be a true team player or leader, you need balanced mental health, resilience to deal with stressful environments and a pragmatic ability to understand when to listen, mentor, lead or talk frankly in the crew mess about the challenges we face in today’s yachting environment. Great yacht crew share this desire for learning and work as a single unit that share the same values. They work to an agreed plan no matter their nationality, age, experience, or position onboard a vessel and provide each other with the support needed in order to rise to the daily challenges they face as a team. Mission
Over the next decade and akin to the pioneering launch of the purser programme in 2009, we will strive to create happier, professionally trained yacht crew who in turn will build better teams under their own leadership. Key to driving our mission forward in 2020 and beyond was the launch of our accredited Mental Health programme – another industry first. To show our commitment to our mission, as of the 1st January 2021, all students are being given for free a Mental Health Awareness Course inclusive of every course and level. We are also committed to providing students with industry leading learning experiences through our residential and onboard training and online via our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). By continuing to invest heavily in developing our VLE, residential and onboard courses and programmes, we believe that we will be able to make waves and change perceptions as to how crew can better themselves and their working environment. In addition, to enhance the impact of crew training and to ensure we take the best of yachting and learn and incorporate new ways of working from successful organisations outside of the industry, we have a blend of yachting and non-yachting professional trainers who are all leaders in their respective fields and who combined, deliver an incredible learning experience. Values
Challenge: We believe that continually challenging ourselves through learning we improve our productivity, effectiveness, skills, knowledge, and behaviours. Inspire: We believe training programmes should be engaging, informative, applicable, and collaborative to inspire your inner curiosity and thirst for learning. Healthy: We believe that fostering positive mental health and resilience creates healthy, happy, and productive crew. Achieve: We believe that by challenging ourselves through inspirational learning, we will achieve our goals and ambitions.
