Warsash Maritime Academy is holding an open day on Friday 28 June 2013 (10am – 3pm) to showcase the lucrative opportunities available to school and college leavers and those looking for a change of career, and Clyde Marine Training will be on hand throughout the day to discuss career openings and opportunities.

As well as information and talks on life as a deck or engineering officer, there will be the chance to experience what it is like to be in a ships bridge simulator, or experience a virtual walk-through an engine room on the Academy’s new state-of-the-art engine simulator; see how fires are fought at sea, with visual displays by the Fire School, and observe a flypast and winching demonstration by a coastguard helicopter*.

Warsash Maritime Academy’s three-year Foundation degree cadet courses cover navigation (deck), engineering and electro-technical officer training. Course fees, with a salary or training allowance, are funded by shipping companies through sponsorship.
