WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT OUR COURSES

I would certainly recommend the seminar to someone entering the yachting industry. You get a general aspect of how sales, charter, charter management and yacht management work. They give us real examples and solutions from their experience and the two tasks given where really educational as you work with a team of people from different positions and companies.

Valuable updated information on many facts of the yacht industry. Particularly valuable: VAT updates and the networking opportunities with other participants.

Loved how friendly all presenters were.

Was very glad it was more than a “tick the check box" course.
