At the core of the Academy is the Maritime Growth Programme (MGP) developed in conjunction with expert Tracey Jones and designed specifically for crew members facing isolation, stress and the pressures of confined living onboard. The self-paced online course focuses on emotional literacy and stress management, equipping crew with key skills to handle the unique psychological complexities that superyacht life brings.
