About The Training

What is the MCA STCW Qualification

The International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW), 1978 sets minimum qualification standards for masters, officers and watch personnel on seagoing merchant ships and large yachts.

The prerequisite for working on any maritime vessel over 24 meters begins with the STCW 2010 Course, consisting of 5 separate modules. As our network of industry partner superyachts and recruitment agencies consist exclusively of vessels over 24 metres, it is mandatory to first have this qualification before application for your first job onboard.

For those not holding an STCW 2010 certificate already, we offer the highest caliber of STCW 2010 training courses available in the world, conducted using state-of-the-art facilities and equipment all accredited by the British Government Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA). The MCA STCW is widely considered the gold standard of STCW certifications available and recognized in 174 International Maritime Organization (IMO) states. It includes the following modules:

Fire Prevention and Fire Fighting (FPFF)

This module deals with the necessary precautions to minimize the risk of fires aboard ship. It examines how fires are caused and the proper means of extinguishing them. The course includes practical training in the use of fire-fighting equipment and the use of self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) for fire fighting and rescue. The practical live fire fighting training takes place in the Galileo fire training facility and in our IMO/MNTB model fire ship.

Elementary First Aid (EFA)

This module is a mixture of theory and practical sessions offering essential knowledge on how to provide immediate basic medical care at the scene of an accident or other medical emergency.

Personal Safety and Social Responsibility (PSSR)

This classroom based module provides basic induction training in safety procedures and accident prevention, and to familiarize novice crew with the employment conditions and working environment onboard.

Personal Survival Techniques (PST)

This module provides knowledge of essential prevention and survival techniques, including theory and practice sessions, investigating causes of distress, knowledge and use of equipment, launch and recovery of life rafts, preparation for survival, personal survival skills and use of search and rescue organisations. Exercises are carefully supervised and can be undertaken by non-swimmers.

Proficiency in Security Awareness (PSA)

This module is for crew who do not have designated security duties, but must still be aware of key security issues, such as : threats to the maritime transport industry, maritime security definitions, security roles and responsibilities, company and ship security requirements, security threat levels and security measures and procedure.

Recently did my stcw refresher here. First time I did this was at a different school in Phuket in 2015. I noticed a much higher standard of training this time around. Tom the Filipino trainer is a good teacher. Certification (for stcw) is legit and they are listed in the MCA list if you check.No... double pricing for Thais/foreigners that I could see. Something that is a real turn off.Facilities are great. Basically new. Plus they have made a replica multi level boat fire scenario from shipping containers.Negatives are hard to find. If I was to be overly critical I might suggest a better provided meal for the price you pay.Anyway, a legitimate training facility in lovely surroundings.read more

Top quality maritime academy located on Phuket. They offer a variety of courses which are well organised and catered for. There is the option to stay at their on-campus accommodation (clean, convenient fully catered) or to find your own accommodation nearby.The instructors and staff are... accommodating and friendly and the facilities are top-notch: rescue boats, motorboat, (on land) galley, a warehouse with a number of engines (for dismantling and rebuilding), a recreation room, living quarters, fire rooms (with fairly new fire fighting equipment for firefighting practice), pool and much more.The food provided is delicious. However, there are also some nice restaurants within walking distance.The location is ideal: not far from the airport, on the marina and surrounded by beauty!All in all, everything is to a high standard and provided for. The rest of your experience is what you (and your teammates) make of it.read more

Everything was exactly as expected .... Tom and Shameine are two professionals (they have been on board for a long time and "they know of what they are talking about" - you know what I mean -) The crew helping them are very nice people capable of making you feel at home .... the Owner, Anthony,... will introduce you to the secret of the vessels design , tell you story of the origin of the terminology commonly used nowadays and help you out promoting yourself optimizing your CV for the position you aspire to fullfil in this industry ..... Everything for me was worth every single € I've spent and the reason why I say this it's because I'm commenting this post sit in my first yacht "Mess" area ..... Ready for my first trip as a crew member after only few weeks from the end of my courses..... And check my age because I'm not a spring chicken anymore ..... Thank you GALILEO with all my heartread more

An excellent STCW 2010 course run by very experienced and competent personnel. The classes were conducted in a fun but serious manner, with the primary Trainers displaying an approachable but professional attitude. This, along with the STCW having MCA accreditation, I highly recommend studying at... GMA. You won't be disappointed. Be prepared for a difficult fire fighting practical with full kit including BA set. There's no garden hose here!Special thanks to Tom, Shermaine, the Thai assistant trainers, and staff at the Academy.read more

My boyfriend and I just finished our STCW Basic Safety Course with Galileo. We couldn’t be happier about the quality... of training we received. From the time we arrived until the time we left, they went above our expectations. Our experience with Galileo started with a warm welcome, and a tour of the premises showing us everything we could need during our stay with them. Our first instructor, Tom, taught us Fire Prevention & Fire Fighting, Personal Survival Techniques, and Personal Security Awareness. The highlight of the course for us was the Fire Fighting Training, Tom and his Fire Fighting Team showed us all the equipment they have, and we were able to try everything. They made the training realistic, went above the requirements, and made the experience SAFE and FUN.Our second instructor, Shemaine, taught us Elementary First Aid, and Personal Safety & Social Responsibility. Her medical background is a great asset when it comes to teaching the Elementary First Aid. She is patient, and thorough. To my opinion, we can never have too much First Aid Training and she is very good at teaching it.Shemaine and Tom speak perfect English, they are knowledgeable and have a lot of experience on board cruise boats. Both are amazing instructors. They share anecdotes in the classroom, creating a great atmosphere.All other staffs are very helpful and professional, everybody is wearing a uniform so it’s very easy to recognize them. The premises are beautiful, in stunning conditions. The food is delicious and they can adapt the menu to meet all diet requirements. They also have a coffee machine making tasty coffee you can use at will. Thank you so much Galileo for your great standards of training, we were very impressed and we highly recommend anyone to take this course with you.read more

I would highly recommend Galileo Maritime Academy to anyone trying to get into the super yacht Industry, from the first... day arriving to the last day they treat you as one of their own accepting you into their family, teaching you and making sure you have everything you need not only for the course but future too. From Matt teaching the AEC, Tommee (also his assistant Kan) with the practical side, Anthony with his years of experience and Shemaine (also her assistant Kiki) with her first aid and just advice about the industry, I can't fault their knowledge and also care they take in actively guiding their students. I look forward to progressing my career and returning back to Galileo with refresher courses and also course that may further my knowledge.Thanks again guys! Hope to see you soon.read more

In fact, I've received an answer regarding only 1 of the 4 courses, in 2 separate emails sent 2 weeks apart...after an international phone call and a reminder email from me.
