Crew Training and Development: Supporting a Career at Sea
Seafarers are the heart of any crewing business, and the archived DeltaMeco page on training and development describes how an agency can invest in them after hiring.
Careful selection
The page says candidates go through extensive interviews and testing before they are accepted. After that, the agency talks with each person about present and future aims and tries to support their career at sea.
Support measures listed
- Collecting feedback from senior officers about a newcomer within a month of joining a vessel.
- Taking part in appraisal systems, together with the client.
- Face-to-face support when it is needed.
- A talent pool to identify high-potential people for faster progression.
- Choosing suitable courses as regulations change.
- Regular occupational health assessments in line with company policy.
- Support for future seafarers through a partnership with SSTG, the Ship Safe Training Group.
Why it matters
Training requirements shift as rules evolve, and an early review helps find problems before they grow. For the training partner, read about the cadets programme. The administration page covers documents and travel.
