A vision that has stood the test of time! ⚓

In 2005, Chairman and Founder, Dieter Jaenicke was interviewed by Kent Online, where he stated that a "school of excellence could be the means of securing Dover's future prosperity".

Fast forward to 2016 and the Maritime Skills Academy first opened its doors. Almost ten years later, two more dedicated centres have been built to accommodate the growing need for cruise, yacht, and specialist vessel crew to be trained in Kent and more widely in the UK.

It's fantastic to see the vision cited 20 years ago brought to life, shaping the maritime industry, as well as the lives and careers of many individuals.

We hope that this vision only continues to grow, and we see more centres across the world as we aim to Set New Standards Together.
