Seafarer Licence Exams and Bespoke Maritime Training
Licence exams, and training built around your vessel and your crew. Run by a Master Mariner.
Seafarer licence exams
I'm accredited to examine seafarers for their licences: all domestic and STCW Certificates of Competence for deck, plus MEC6, and Recognition Exams for overseas-qualified seafarers. That includes:
- Master
- Mate
- WKD
- DWR
- SFV
- SCO
- SRL
- QDC
I also run recognition exams under STCW for overseas seafarers.
Many of these exams can be conducted online, which saves you travel time and cost. Ring me with the ticket you're going for and your timing, and I will tell you what the process looks like.
Bespoke maritime training
No fixed syllabus. I build the training around your crew, your vessel and your operation. It sits alongside the bridge and wheelhouse competency training I run on board. And if the training need came out of a safety system review, that's consultancy work and I do that too.
From a fleet operator
We have also had Mark examine several of our people for seafarers' certificates. He was found to be both knowledgeable and fair when dealing with our people.
