About the course
The Crew Academy’s GUEST-accredited Captain & HOD
Mental Health Awareness course is specifically designed to
equip leaders in yachting with the awareness to drive
positive change.
Senior Leaders onboard are often only able to deal with the
“urgent” and not always able to deal with the “important” as
owners, guests and crew vie for their limited time.
They recognise that positive mental health is a key-contributor to
an efficient, happy, and productive boat and they want to be able
to help and support their crew and prolong their careers on their
vessels.
However, being able to do this without having the knowledge nor
the toolbox to do so, means this ‘important’ and much needed
part of their leadership role remains a challenge.
Course Format
Two four-hour evening sessions with a mix of live lectures,
collaborative group workshops and open discussions delivered
over Zoom.
The first day is an introduction to managing mental health for
yacht crew, while the second day is specifically targeted at leaders
in yachting looking to foster positive working environments on
board.
