STANDARDS OF TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION OF WATCHKEEPERS ‘95 Superyacht Crew - Before you can get a job on an ocean going superyacht you must hold the four STCW95 Basic Safety Training Certificates. United Kingdom Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) recognition of the STCW95 Basic Safety Training Certificates is required by 99% of superyachts which are registered in the Cayman or Marshall Islands. Please note that some STCW95 Basic Safety Training courses on offer from other training organisations are not recognised by the MCA. All our IYT training courses, including the STCW95 Basic Safety Training, are recognised by the MCA. We have provided STCW95 Basic Safety Training to over 280 superyacht crew in the last 2 years. Please call us for details of our next AMSA endorsed STCW95 Certificate of Safety Training course.
