Training Courses
With over 40 years experience, we deliver training sessions to you, your friends and family onboard YOUR vessel. Every session is tailored specific to your vessel, experience and requirements. Our courses include but not limited to:
- Onboard Safety Training
- Practical Vessel Handling
- Practical Flares & Fire Extinguisher Training
We customise each and every course to suit the needs and experience of our clients. We do not have a one size fits all, as each vessel is different and each crew member is different. That is why we have such high success rates and our courses are highly recommended in the marine industry.
Specialised Management Plans
While having a compliant Safety Management System in place is great, keeping it compliant is something else! Dealing with follow-up requirements, Annual Reviews and more are things that many people just don’t understand.
That’s where Shorlink comes in!
We can manage just your Safety Management System and/or we can include options such as training and maritime consultancy.
Maritime Consultancy
Whilst prevention is always best, sometime accidents do happen. That’s when we can assist your maritime business to consult and identify exactly what occurred, and hopefully mitigate any liability issues.
Our clients have enjoyed great success from our consultancy service.
