Exciting updates at our Stewarding Academy: Redefining excellence in crew education

At our Stewarding Academy 7-star Crew Training (luxury yachts, jets, estates, private sector), we are committed to delivering the highest standard of training tailored to the elite world of luxury yachting. We understand that excellence in service requires not just knowledge but also hands-on experience and refined attention to detail. That’s why we are introducing some exciting updates to enhance the learning journey of aspiring and experienced VVIP yacht and jet crew.

Optimised 60-minute, 90-minute or 120-minute training blocks for maximum efficiency
To ensure every student gets the most out of their training, all our courses are now structured into optimised learning blocks, inspired by the Kaizen method of gradual, continuous improvement adapted to individual needs of the learner. This approach allows us to break down extensive training, such as a 30-hour program, into smaller, more manageable sessions. This makes it easier for busy professionals to fit training into their schedules while ensuring long-term retention and mastery of key skills. Repetition of core techniques over time enhances effectiveness, helping students refine their service precision and onboard expertise step by step.

Beyond stewardess training: professional development for all crew
Our academy is more than just stewardess training. We offer specialised programs for all crew members looking to elevate their skills to a top-tier service level. Whether you are a deckhand, engineer, or chef, you can benefit from our exclusive English as a Second Language courses tailored to the yachting industry for example, ensuring clear communication and confidence in guest interactions. Check it out.

Additionally, for those transitioning from high-end hospitality or aviation to superyachts, our training provides the essential service knowledge required to meet UHNWI expectations. Our courses help professionals refine their expertise, ensuring a seamless transfer into the ultra-luxury sector. We also offer VVIP Flight Attendant Silver Service training, ideal for aviation professionals seeking to expand their skillset and enhance their expertise in elite guest care.

Career coaching & professional development
In response to the evolving demands of the yachting industry, we are introducing career coaching in the new form in 2025. We provide self-presentation simulations that prepare crew members for job interviews, ensuring they make a lasting impression with recruiters and captains. We also focus on first-day professionalism onboard, covering key aspects such as guest service etiquette, team interactions, and elite-level service execution. These modules are designed to boost confidence and ensure crew members excel from the moment they step on board.

Future digital learning opportunities by October
While hands-on, personal instruction remains the foundation of our academy, we recognise that some knowledge-based modules can be effectively delivered online. In the coming months, we plan to introduce exclusive recorded modules, carefully selected to complement our in-depth, practical courses. These recordings, expected to launch in September/October, will cover foundational topics that do not require one-on-one coaching but will provide valuable insights for aspiring crew members looking to enhance their knowledge at their own pace.

Designed for UHNWI-Level yacht service standards
Our academy remains dedicated to the exceptional standards expected on the world’s most prestigious superyachts. Every aspect of our training reflects the refined expectations of UHNWI owners and their guests, ensuring that our graduates are fully prepared to deliver impeccable service at the highest level.

If you are looking for bespoke training that goes beyond traditional stewardess courses, our programs are designed to support all crew members in achieving excellence in their roles. Contact us today to tailor your learning experience and take the next step in your luxury yachting career.
