I was interested in joining the yachting industry and decided to take the short course. It provides introductory level of information for the super-yacht industry that was very interesting and useful for someone interested in this. I ended up working for a Marine Fire and Safety company that works with superyachts so I am happy to say that the knowledge I gained was useful in my professional development. The MTA team was highly supportive throughout the course and available for questions at all times. I definitely recommend them

Completing the Diploma in Boatyard and Marina Operations gave me valuable knowledge and practical insight into the marina industry. Matt , Lynn and Andrea were amazing and assist all the way to the end of the course. In MTA they are doing an amazing job and i believe all the courses are worth it.

The course material was exceptionally well structured, easy to follow, and presented in a very professional manner. It strikes the right balance between theory and practical application, making it highly relevant for anyone working in the yachting industry. As someone involved in yacht projects, I found the content to be exactly what professionals in the yachting world need. It provides valuable insights, industry best practices, and practical knowledge that can be applied immediately. I would highly recommend MTA Academy to anyone looking to deepen their expertise and further their professional development in the superyacht industry.

Recently completed my Diploma in Superyacht Management and it was a 10/10 experience. The MTA team are great are answering all my questions at 2am. Being on the other side of the world while trying to complete this didn't impact the level of response at all! Looking forward to completing another diploma later this year!

From the start, I knew choosing the Maritime Training Academy was the right decision. They strive to provide the best education and bring out the best in you. My thanks to Andrea, Lynn, Ian, and all the authors. Dear Reader, I highly recommend the Maritime Training Academy for your studies.
