What is STCW Basic Training?

A plain-English guide to the core safety training new commercial crew and superyacht candidates need.

STCW Basic Training is the core safety training route for many people who want to work commercially at sea, including new superyacht crew.

The Seahaven pathway brings the core modules together so students can understand survival, first aid, fire, personal safety, social responsibility and security awareness before joining a vessel.

Students should check live dates, kit guidance and travel instructions before booking accommodation or transport.
