wine, floristry, valet services, sewing, housekeeping and laundry. Explains School Director Anderson, “I personally worked on yachts for a total of 17 years therefore have first hand knowledge and understanding of the skills required of yacht stewardesses as well as the issues that they have to deal with.” The courses have specific learning outcomes, for example, how to arrange and care for flowers and plants, but Anderson is quick to point out that the courses also aim to teach crew how to function well as a team member and as a stewardess.
She adds, “Our courses follow the GUEST Program and as such are regulated by IAMI. This programme was designed by people working in the industry, at the request of those the industry serve. They are tailored to ensure students are equipped with the information necessary to perform their role at sea, as well as raise the standards for the yacht owners.
Training for an hour, a day or a week, every little bit of time taken to study and learn adds lead to a weighty and satisfying career path. Combining this with first-hand mentoring on the job will put crew in the driving seat of their next moves.
