The Yacht Owner’s Representative Program (YORP) is the fully-accredited
qualification designed to set a new industry standard. The program has
been developed to provide a deep understanding and practical
knowledge on the leadership, operational and technical skills required for
this role. It is directed at all existing and aspiring owner’s representatives,
project managers, captains, officers and contractors working in any
shipyard on behalf of a yacht owner.
Backed by SYBAss and accredited by IAMI & GUEST, the learning outcomes of
the YORP were conceived by a team of experienced owner’s representatives
and shipyard project managers. Developed as a two-part program, the YORP is
delivered exclusively by valued and certified IAMI & GUEST training providers,
The Crew Academy.
The core operational and technical aspects of the program are covered in
a comprehensive three-part online program by The Crew Academy, in
collaboration with more than 30 specialist contractors, shipyard personnel and
other industry experts.
This section of the course covers all the practical tools ORs need to have in order
to deliver a new build or refit: from project management and compliance; to the
finer details of yacht design and build; as well as financial, legal and
administrative knowledge.
