Audience two

Career readiness and entry pathways.

For people aged 18 to 40 who could build a career in maritime, and mostly do not know it is there. This sits outside our registered training provision: it is preparation for the sector, not certificated training in it.

Maritime is a large, technical, internationally regulated employer that recruits almost invisibly. Young people leave school and university without being shown the sector, the roles in it, or the route to a first job. Employers then report they cannot find people. Both are true at once, and the fix is a pathway, not a poster.

Nothing on this page carries assessment or certification, and we will not imply otherwise. What it carries is orientation: an accurate picture of the sector, the credentials each role actually requires, and the order to acquire them in. A young person who leaves with a wrong map is worse off than one who leaves with none.

01 / Who it is for

Who we work with here.

  • Students and recent graduates

    Technical and academic, from institutions that do not yet teach the maritime economy as a career destination.

  • Career changers

    People moving in from logistics, ICT, engineering or security, who already hold transferable capability.

  • Coastal and port-adjacent communities

    Young people who live beside the industry and were never introduced to it.

  • Qualified jobseekers

    People already holding a qualification, with no route into the sector to apply it in.

02 / What we deliver

Four things, done properly.

  • Sector orientation

    How the maritime economy actually works, who employs whom, and where the work is. Ports and terminals, shipping and chartering, freight and logistics, finance and insurance, regulation and policy.

  • Role and qualification mapping

    The real roles, the credentials each one requires, and the order to acquire them in. Specific enough to act on.

  • Employability preparation

    Applications, interviews, workplace conduct and the standards maritime employers expect on day one.

  • Foundational technical literacy

    Port operations, maritime safety and security basics, and digital and cyber hygiene: enough to hold a conversation and to be trainable on arrival.

Run a school, a college or a youth programme?

We work with institutions that want the maritime economy put in front of their people early enough to matter. Tell us who your cohort is and what they are deciding.
