What an amazing experience through Certified Superyacht Academy! I went into the Yachting courses with little to no knowledge about the industry, and through the help of Daniel's amazing customer service from the outset, to Maxine's incredible stewardess course teaching us everything from the Dock-walking process to silver service, and Conrad's passion for lending his knowledge to students and helping them where ever possible. This team has made this experience so memorable and even through the Corona Virus, so enjoyable!

What an amazing team!
Conrad and Daniel were super helpful with helping me figure out the right path to take to break into the industry, They help you every step of the way which is super helpful especially if you new to the world of yachting like I am... I even hand multiple direct conversations with both of them during this difficult time which put my mind at ease.
Professional, efficient and brilliant.
I would 100% recommend Certified to anyone who is looking to complete yachting course's in CT.

These guys are truly amazing. Daniel was so helpful, patient and made everything so easy for me during the booking process. Even the owner Conrad helped explain certain courses I wasn't sure about. Just an all round great experience. I highly recommend this company and I will go out of my way in future to do courses through them. Thank you guys again for all the help.

I can't praise the guy's at Certified Superyacht Academy enough, they listen and understand your needs instead of just selling you a bunch of unnecessary courses.
Daniel did a great job of explaining everything realistically and Conrad really went above and beyond with helping me get my new career started and arming me with everything I could ever need.
You can't go wrong with this company and best of luck to you in your future endeavorsShaun Wampach
I have just completed my STCW through Super yacht and the entire experience was awesome. Daniel made sure I was doing the correct courses and recommended others to help enter the industry. The course providers that Certified Superyacht Academy use are fantastic and make the course highly enjoyable. Only good comments about this company. If you're interested in doing your STCW and a range of other courses, give these guys a go. Highly recommend.

Extremely helpful and prompt

I did my STCW Training with C.T, which was the best choice. The course breakdown was excellent, very good administration, instructors and facilities.
Especially first aid and fire fighting are spectacular and the scenarios couldn't be closer to reality...
I couldn't be happier
Thank you Certified Training for having me
all the best!!Monique Grobler

I just would like to thank Certified for the efficient help in allowing me to complete my yacht courses and after student care. The men at Certified were extremely prompt in supplying me with an itinerary and gladly adapted it to suit my availability. Everyone is super friendly in the office and i found your website easy to use and follow.I would give them more than a 5 star rating if this were an option and i highly recommend this company.
Thanks for all the help
