Best decision ever!

Could not have wished for anything better! During this program we were guided from start to finish, which led me to landing my first job before the program even finished. YachtieCareers know what they are doing! I highly recommend joining them to start your career. Not only will it be the best decision ever but you’ll also gain a support system of new friends that will make this journey truly amazing!

First job offer during training

I did the training with YachtieCareers in October and had an amazing experience. I actually received my first job offer during the training and went straight to Monaco for my first position. Even after the course, they’re still incredibly supportive — answering all my questions and updating my CV whenever I need it. I’m so grateful for their help and I am glad I did the training with them!

Got my first job very quickly

Highly recommend! I could not be happier. My group was amazing and I appreciate so much all the help and every question answered. In my home country I would have paid the same price for just basic safety and not got all the extra support and guides. It was amazing to have all the medical appointments and other necessary certificates. Well organized with nothing to think about. I had a great time and met wonderful people. I got my first job very quickly with their instructions and they still give me full support and keep updating my new CV.

Job before training week was over

Yachtie Careers has been nothing but an amazing experience! I have learnt so much and feel very confident moving forward with my yachting career. Antonija is such an amazing person and helped me land my first job before the training week was even over! Forever grateful for this experience!

First stewardess job three weeks later

A big thank you to YachtieCareers for helping me start my journey. I completed my STCW training and landed my first stewardess job three weeks later on a 130 foot MY based in Key West, Florida. I strongly appreciate the guidance given to me along the way by Drazen and his team. If you are looking to start your career in this industry Yachtiecareers is a good start!

First job on a 60m one week after

Yachtie careers helped me with landing my first job on a 60m M/Y one week after completing my training. They were especially helpful with constructing my CV and answering the vast amounts of questions I had about the industry.

Two job offers during training week

This course and the support I have received has been absolutely outstanding! Had an amazing week and met new yachtie friends during STCW training in Croatia. Drazen and the team helped me from start to finish with CV, certificates and the job search. I started applying for jobs from home and already had 2 calls with Stewardess job offers!!! 100% would recommend this course for anyone wanting to start out in the yachting industry!!!

Still checking in a year and a half later

Me and my partner used YACHTIECAREERS to help us with our CVs and link them together for us to find a job together. We indeed landed a job together thanks to the help of Yachtiecareers! I highly recommend using them for any help with CVs and also work advice! This was about a year and a half ago, and they still check in to make sure our CVs are still good and up to date.

Seamless and exciting

I completed my training with Yachtiecareers in the February group, guided by Ivana and Antonija, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From day one, Ivana and Antonija were incredibly supportive, helping me choose the right courses for my interests, guiding me through writing my CV, and providing all the information we needed to confidently get started in the industry. They made what could have been an overwhelming process feel seamless and exciting. Beyond the training itself, the people made the experience even more special. I walked away not only with valuable knowledge, but with genuine friendships and memories I’ll always look back on. A huge thank you to Ivana and Antonija — I couldn’t recommend Yachtiecareers enough. 11/10!

Made the right choice

I honestly loved my experience with YachtieCareers! Ivana and Antonija were always there for us, answering every single question, and they made sure we understood everything clearly. It was so nice to be able to directly talk and ask questions from people who have been in the industry for years and can share all the secret tips and tricks with you! Before coming, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Leaving your country for an expensive training program is a big, scary decision. But I quickly realized I had made the right choice. They guide you through every step and all the certifications you need to become a yachtie. Of course, they can’t guarantee you a job — that’s a step you have to make yourself, but they equip you with everything you need to make it happen. Thank you for an unforgettable experience, for the friends I made, and for giving me the confidence I needed to finally get out there and chase my dream job!

100% the place to start

I can’t recommend Yachtie Careers enough! From day one they made the whole process feel exciting instead of overwhelming. The course was not only super informative and practical, but I also made some genuinely amazing friends that I know I’ll stay in touch with throughout my yachting journey. They really set you up with everything you need to confidently start job hunting — CV guidance, dock walking prep, interview tips, and real insight into how the industry works. I walked in not knowing where to begin and left feeling prepared and motivated. A huge thank you to Ivana and Antonija — they are absolutely incredible. They were supportive every step of the way, always encouraging, answering every question, and truly caring about each of us succeeding. If you’re thinking about getting into yachting, this is 100% the place to start.

Friends for life

I just completed the course with Yachtiecareers. I had an amazing 10 days training and met friends for life. I am the youngest they have had and they helped me learn so much. The teacher Tom was fantastic — he helped us with everything we needed to know about the STCW course. The Yachtiecareers team guided us through all the way with their support. Highly recommend Yachtiecareers to start your journey. They also guided me on how to get a job. Thank you Tom, Ivana, Antonija, Suda.

Easy to communicate with from Australia

As someone from Australia, I found the team incredibly easy to communicate with! When I needed extra documents for the move, they were fantastic, providing efficient and helpful assistance. I highly recommend this program to anyone. The online training modules are easy to follow, and you feel fully supported throughout the entire process.

Exceeded my expectations

Coming into this course with zero yachting experience, I was honestly nervous but Yachtiecareers completely exceeded my expectations and made me feel supported every step of the way. From day one, the team was warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional. They took the time to explain everything clearly — no question was ever too small. On top of the practical skills, Lori was amazing and helped me build my CV, guided with interview prep, and dock walking tips gave me a clear plan of action post-course. I felt not just trained but genuinely prepared to step into the industry. Yachtiecareers doesn’t just teach you how to be a stew — they empower you to walk away as a professional. I’m beyond grateful for this experience, the incredible instructors, and the lifelong friends I made during the course. If you’re thinking about taking the leap into yachting, especially with no prior experience — this is the place to start. Big THANK YOU to Lorena, Antonija, Drazen and Tom!

Taught me more than school ever did

Wow! Hard to explain the course in words but the start is to say that it was one experience I will never forget. From having the best teachers to meeting friends for life — I would say that the course taught me more this week than school has ever taught me. If you want to do STCW I would recommend this school over anyone because not only was it super good education — they also guide you all the way, and Drazen is a really good leader and instructor.

Transition from cruise ship to superyachts

I found them on Instagram while searching for a transition from cruise ship to yachts. After booking a 1 on 1 consultation with Antonija I was certain I was on the right path. I booked the Premium package which I would recommend because you learn a lot on both sides of the boat and the accommodation is literally next to the training center. So everything is planned to detail. After having the seminars with Ivana, they helped us create our CV, give us tips to secure the job and taught us so much more about etiquette, confidence and success. I also love the friends they paired me with — those connections are for life.

Two deckhand roles in first week

If you are looking to get a job in Yachting, I feel like Yachtiecareers is the best training service. It basically gives you all you need in one training package. I had 24/7 support and in addition to just getting the certification they wrote my CV for me and helped me get my first job. After getting my new CV and certificates I was offered 2 Deckhand roles within the first week. I landed a dream job and now work on an 86m M/Y in my first Deckhand role. Highly recommended.

First Officer position in Greece

Amazing Service. I was trying to switch from cruise ships as a 2nd Officer and could not land a job in Yachting. Did the CV and Superyacht training package. Got an amazing uniquely designed CV — they rewrote all my experience and made it look professional and even sent my CV to yachts they work with which landed me my first 2nd Officer Yacht position in Greece! Big thanks to the whole team.

The best STCW school in Split, Croatia

I had a fantastic and very constructive experience with this STCW school in Croatia. The instructors were highly knowledgeable, professional, and always kind and supportive throughout the course. The training was practical, functional, engaging, and even fun, which made learning much easier and more enjoyable. I especially appreciated how well prepared the team was and how they created a positive environment while still maintaining high standards. I left feeling more confident, well trained, and excited to start my journey in the yachting industry. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking to do their STCW certification in Croatia.

STCW with YachtieCareers

To do STCW with YachtieCareers was definitely a decision I will never regret! Ivana and Antonija are really great people with a lot of experience, always positive, helpful, funny. Because of them I know a lot about how it works on yachts and I know I can text them anytime. I highly recommend these courses! On this journey I met amazing people that I will never forget.

Amazing friends for life

Huge thanks to Yachtiecareers training program and most of all to our instructors Ivana and Antonija! They were here for all of us every step of this training, they answered all of our questions and made us feel very excited about stepping into the yachting industry. They carefully explained everything about this job, shared their experience and gave us so much useful information and tips. Both of them got us feeling very excited about starting our careers at sea! We also had an amazing theory instructor Tom. He made us laugh every single day while still teaching us all important knowledge. Besides all of that, we enjoyed our week and made friends for life!

March cohort — well organised

I highly recommend their STCW course. I joined the March 2026 cohort and can tell it was well organized. Antonija and Ivana are the heart and soul of this business as they are available, approachable and amazing at communicating all we need to know before, during and after the course. Special highlight for the post-course support which is reassuring and caring. If you are unsure if this is right for you as I was, please contact them via Instagram and check the previous reviews and videos. You won’t regret it!

Worth the 8-month wait

I had a very positive and incredible experience with Yachtiecareers! I waited 8 months to do my STCW course with them and it was so worth it! Antonija and Ivana were supporting me even before I signed up for the training. They are very professional, knowledgeable and caring. The training is well structured and provides both theoretical knowledge and practical skills that are essential for working in the yachting industry. Thank you very much for providing such valuable training, for always being there for us and for helping me prepare for my future! I couldn’t be happier about how I started my yacht career!

Great price, excellent course package

I started contact with Yachtiecareers a year before doing the course and it was great — very attentive, responsive and helpful! Now that I’ve done the course I couldn’t be happier. It was absolutely worth flying all the way from Portugal for it. Great price, excellent course package and awesome support from the team. Oh, and let’s not forget the amazing photos every step of the way! Thank you Antonija, Ivana and Suda.

Everything went super smoothly

Just finished my STCW course with Yachtiecareers and everything went super smoothly! The team is incredibly professional and well-organized. Special thanks to Drazen for being so responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. Highly recommend Yachtiecareers to anyone looking for quality yachting training!

Great value Premium package

I recommend the Yachtiecareers Premium package. Great value because professional instructors Antonija and Ivana make your CV, answer all your questions and get you equipped with everything you need to land your first job in the industry. It is also very fun and feels like you are on holidays even though you are learning new things every day.

Full support every step of the way

Where to start… Ivana, Antonija — 5 stars to both of you. Absolutely amazing, couldn’t have asked for a better 11 days. They’re so helpful with any questions you have as well as always seeking what’s best for you. There’s no guarantee on getting a job here because that’s not up to them. But what they do guarantee is full support and are with you for every step of the way. They truly care about what they do and all they want is for you to succeed. Plus the people you meet along the way can turn into some pretty cool friends. If I had to do it again, I’d do it at Yachtie Careers.

Premium course — definitely worth it

The best experience with Yachtie Careers. The tutors are with you to guide you every step of the way. They’re also experienced — former yacht crew themselves. They explain everything if you’re confused. Help you with visas and interviews. I chose the Premium course and it was definitely worth the money — they even wrote my CV and sat down and went through everything with me. Highly recommend if anyone is wanting to start out in the yacht industry.

Premium Package — ten incredible days

I went for the Premium Package with YACHTIECAREERS and thanks to the amazing care and support from their representative Antonija and the whole team, I was able to complete all the essential certificates I needed to start my career in the yachting industry. It was an incredibly intense and valuable 10 days full of new knowledge and useful information. A big shoutout to Captain Tom, who taught us everything in such a clear and easy-to-understand way — just fantastic! Since I had the Premium Package, my accommodation was also included, right next to the training center. For anyone who wants to start working in yachting and needs to get their certificates — I can 100% recommend YACHTIECAREERS!

Best decision I could make

Choosing Yachtie Careers was the best decision I could make in terms of jump-starting my new career! Antonija was always there with such encouraging words, wonderful advice and training, starting with my inquiries before I decided to go for it and during the entire training. Her honesty, knowledge and optimism made me feel confident I had made the right choice. With the Premium package, I also received deckhand training, extra Stewardess courses, future support from Antonija, CV writing and advice on how to proceed. The exam fees were included in the Premium so that was one less thing I had to worry about. I would recommend Yachtie Careers — I received great training, I was not alone and I have the future support of the Yachtie Career team. Thank you Antonija!

Premium Package — worth the extra

I recommend the Premium Package. I started as a Stewardess and I felt it was worth the extra money to get help with everything from getting qualified, to getting a bank account, writing my CV, getting my Visas, references and daywork to helping me sign my first contract. Thanks so much to the team who helped me the most and was there to help whenever needed!

Could not have done it without you

I already did the STCW Basic Safety back home and started online with the online training and CV writing. Apart from all the online modules it is so amazing to have someone experienced guiding you every step of the way. I could not be happier with the CV, references and getting all the documents needed to start. I could not have done it without you!!

Invaluable guidance

I have just finished my training with Yachtiecareers. The guidance has been so invaluable. Drazen and Suda have been so amazing — they wrote my CV and business cards so professionally and have been just a text away whenever I’ve needed help. This course is so convenient as everything is compiled into 10 days. If I tried to do this myself at home it would have taken a lot of time and money. I could never have made the transition into the yachting industry without them. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to do the same.

Shortlisted in first two weeks

I did my training online with Yachtiecareers — a lot of useful information was included and I felt like I learnt everything I needed to know. I got shortlisted and interviewed in my first two weeks and also done my first season on a 38m. Now having more experience I have a new updated CV which looks amazing!

Still helping months later

I had a great experience getting my STCW through Yachtie Careers in Croatia! I actually fell sick before being able to complete my final exam and Drazen helped to reorganise my exam months later when I could return. I was also recently on a job and needed a new version of my CV ASAP — I sent a message to Drazen and he had a new version written up and sent out within the hour!

Career support from deckhand to Bosun

Great help and career support. They have helped both with Yacht CV for my roles as Bosun and now 2nd Officer. But also for yacht crew visas, B1/B2 visa and helping with contracts for new jobs. Would recommend both junior yacht crew and more experienced!

Still checking in a year and a half later

Me and my partner used YACHTIECAREERS to help us with our CVs and link them together for us to find a job together. We indeed landed a job together thanks to the help of Yachtiecareers! I highly recommend using them for any help with CVs and also work advice! This was about a year and a half ago, and they still check in to make sure our CVs are still good and up to date.

Unforgettable memories

Thank you Yachtiecareers for unforgettable memories! The course was very well organized and we all had ton of fun! We got so many good tips and guides to start at the industry with many fun activities. Definitely worth the money. Would recommend to anyone who wants a training package that includes so many things.

All the tools to start with confidence

I can highly recommend Yachtie Careers to anyone looking to start a career in yachting. The course was incredibly informative, practical, and packed with valuable industry knowledge. Yachtie Careers provides all the essential tools and guidance needed to begin the job search with confidence, including CV support, dock-walking preparation, interview coaching, and genuine insight into how the yachting industry operates. I started the course with very little understanding of where to begin, and by the end, I felt confident, prepared, and motivated to take the next steps. A special thank you to Ivana and Antonija for their outstanding support — they were always available to answer questions and genuinely cared about helping each student succeed.

Most amazing experience

I had the most amazing experience at YachtieCareers. Ivana and Antonija guided us very well through the process and I learned a lot.

Awesome training, awesome people

Awesome training, awesome people. Well structured courses, very informative and the best thing to me is that they have REAL experience with yachting. They have been in the industry for such a long time — that is such a valid asset for anyone starting in this industry. Other than that, they were all super helpful and very friendly. Besides that — you don’t do the course on your own. I’ve met amazing people from all over the world and the bond with them is amazing. Definitely recommend it to everyone!

Highly recommend

Best week of my life

I can honestly say this week with YachtieCareers exceeded all of my expectations. Ivana and Antonija are not only incredibly knowledgeable but they are truly passionate about what they do and it shows in every part of the training. Their support, patience and constant encouragement created such a positive and motivating environment. They don’t just teach you the basics — they make sure you understand the standard expected on board and feel genuinely confident stepping into the industry.

I went with the Premium package where included they create a CV that is professional, tailored, and perfectly aligned with what captains and recruiters are looking for. If you’re serious about entering the yachting industry this is where you need to start. Ivana and Antonija truly go above and beyond.

Yachtie Careers was so helpful in the 11 days we spent with them. I didn’t know where to begin when getting into the yachting industry but by completing training with Yachtie Careers I feel I am now ready to begin my journey. All the instructors are so kind and always there to answer any questions you have! I also had the most amazing group of people do the course with me in February and I know we will be friends for life! Overall I would definitely recommend Yachtie Careers if you’re looking to begin your journey into yachting!

In the hands of true professionals

My experience with Yachtie Careers was excellent from start to finish. I was initially a bit sceptical, as this is an important career step, but that feeling quickly disappeared. As the course progressed, I felt consistently reassured that I was in the hands of true professionals. Everything was well organised, transparent, and supportive. Antonija and Ivana were outstanding. Their leadership, professionalism, and genuine commitment to helping each student succeed really stood out. They were always present, approachable, and highly competent.

Love the teachers!! Do it!

Fantastic stewardess for our charter

Yachtie Careers helped me find a stewardess for a catamaran bareboat sailing trip out of Split. They provided resumes from recently trained stewardesses. We spoke with and selected one — she was absolutely fantastic. We primarily wanted someone who could prepare meals to take that burden off us and the food was delicious and healthy. Better than I could have hoped. Thank you Yachtie Careers!

Highly knowledgeable team

This company and the team is truly incredible! I highly recommend! The girls and instructors that bring you through the course are insanely knowledgeable and helpful. If you want to start your career in yachting this is the company to start with! They help you make the perfect CV and have a highly skilled team that brings you through everything you need to know whether it be CVs, dock walking, networking, job search — they do it all!

Switch made easy

AMAZING COMPANY!!! 100% recommend! Switching to a new career can be difficult and confusing but Yachtie Careers has made the switch super easy. Marifer especially has made this transition so smooth and easy! From day one I’ve felt supported and uplifted from each instructor I’ve met and worked with. Even my classmates were super nice and welcoming! Can’t recommend this company enough!!

Friends for life

I had an amazing 2 weeks at Yachtie Careers! The training was super fun and informative and I feel a lot safer and confident going into the industry. Marifer our instructor was an angel and kept all of us feeling welcomed with her reassurance and magnetic personality. I made friends for life in this course and would wish the same for anyone else wanting to join! Thank you so much for the experience.

Go the extra mile

I can’t recommend Yachtie Careers enough! From the start, they were professional, super helpful, and always willing to accommodate any requests I had. I was applying from Sri Lanka and ran into some issues with my visa, which was really stressful. But the team was incredibly understanding and supportive, guiding me through the process and making sure I had everything I needed. It’s clear that they genuinely care about helping people get started in the yachting industry. If you’re looking for a team that will go the extra mile for you, this is the place.

Absolutely LOVED Split

Absolutely LOVED my time in Split with YachtieCareers! The most amazing instructors and crew, alongside having met incredible people to do the course with. Thank you so much for everything.

Much more than just STCW

The course with Yachtiecareers was something much more than just STCW. This great team gives you such valuable knowledge about the business and tons of tips that make you feel prepared for your new career. They are super responsive and really great people that assist you through the whole process. Totally worth it! That’s the best way to start!

Incredible experience in Croatia

I recently completed a 7-day course with YachtieCareers in Croatia and it was an incredible experience. The course provided me with the essential knowledge and skills to start a career in the yacht industry. Not only did it open many doors professionally, but I also made great new friends along the way. The environment was super friendly and supportive, with special thanks to Drazen for all his help and guidance. If you’re looking to get into this industry, I highly recommend YachtieCareers!

Great place to start

YachtieCareers is a great place to start in the yachting industry as you get provided with guidance, start up information and the mandatory courses to be able to work in the industry. Drazen and team have been so helpful and friendly, and answered all my questions and offered a lot of insight and advice for my career.

Great support every day

Very good course for getting STCW with great support every day. Very fun instructors and I have learnt a lot looking forward to starting work on a yacht!

Takes care of everything

Yachtiecareers are the best when it comes to preparing you for work on board. They will take care of your CV, certificates, help you get a visa and your first job. I highly recommend them!!

Smooth and easy process

I had a really great time with Yachtiecareers in Croatia. All of our appointments for the STCW were pre-scheduled, which made the process super smooth and easy. Drazen is always reachable if you have any questions regarding the course, job search or CV. He also wrote me a recommendation letter that helped me get my B1/B2 Visa. Other than that it was a great group of people and an amazing time in Split.

100% recommend

A great course that I would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to get into yachting! Drazen, Charlie and team are all so supportive throughout the whole course, making sure your CV is as best as it can be to give you the highest chance of getting a job straight after the course. We got the chance to go on a superyacht to be shown around which was a great bonus. Met some great people on the course as well!

Really good introduction

Really good opportunity to get an understanding of the industry before you start your journey. Working in this industry is hard but Yachtiecareers gives you a really good introduction into this career and helps where they can! Drazen and his team are really approachable and are there to help every step of the way! You also get to meet some amazing people along the way.

No fears or doubts

Honestly this has been the best experience ever! I would recommend to everyone. The courses give you all the information and more than you need. I have been guided from the day I signed up and had no fears or doubts along the way. The team are incredible and always on top of everything. Truly if you want to get into the yachting industry you must choose Yachtie Careers, you won’t regret it I can assure you.

Once in a lifetime experience

The YachtieCareers program for becoming Yacht Stewardess/Deckhand was a once in a lifetime experience which took place in the city of Split, Croatia. The course provides us with all the needed knowledge and skills to be STCW certified crew and be able to work on superyachts. I am not only happy with all the licences and certificates which I acquired but also the beautiful friendships and memories which we made along this journey with the group will forever stay with me. Definitely recommend!

Best course leaders

Antonija and Marifer were the best course leaders we could have dreamed of. They truly made the experience one of a kind.

Everything needed to become a deckhand

Could not ask for better. Did a deckhand course for two weeks in Croatia with Yachtiecareers — everything really well organised about all the days in Croatia, met almost 20 people who want to start working in the same industry, got all the certificates needed to work on yachts and got all the theoretical knowledge to become a capable deckhand. Really grateful.

Reviewing CVs and sending opportunities

Drazen has been the most helpful in guiding us in the yachting industry! He’s answering all our questions, reviewing our CVs and sending us opportunities for us to apply. Would recommend!

Absolutely incredible

Absolutely incredible, couldn’t be more happy. Yachtiecareers have been very helpful and quick with any problems I have had. Can’t say enough about them!

Supported before, during and after

Thank you to Drazen for this wonderful opportunity and bringing us all together. A trip we will not forget. I feel very confident in the support that was provided before, during and after the process and I look forward to starting a career in the maritime industry!

Very supportive after the course

Very good company to do your STCW basic safety training with. Also very supportive after the course is finished. Definitely recommend it.

Fun and informative

Amazing experience, great people. Greets from Belgrade.

Beautiful experience in Split

I had a beautiful experience in Split. The hostel was really good and next to the school. Drazen helped me with everything and has been clear to all the questions I had. Tomislav, the STCW Instructor, has been very friendly.

Unique support through the whole process

The support given by this company is unique. You can find thousands of STCW courses around but Yachtiecareers offers professionality and support through the whole process, giving all you need to start your new career at sea. I am truly happy that I am going to become a new member of Yachtiecareers. Thanks Drazen!!

Everything in one package

I loved the whole course to become a Stewardess. STCW and getting everything you need in one package. Loved Split and Croatia, meeting new yachties and starting to work on board together.

First job on a 55m yacht

Did my STCW, ENG1, and PDSD with YachtieCareers. Everything went smoothly, and they helped me land my first job on a 55m yacht right after training. Highly recommend!

Every step of the way

YachtieCareers STCW Training helped me every step of the way — from flights and visas to accommodation and CV building. The team is motivational and genuinely cares about each student.

Supremely professional and organised

The folks at Yachtiecareers are a supremely professional and organised group and it has been an absolute pleasure working with them. They’re transparent, fair and have an awesome training program. Thanks for being the stepping stone my son needed to move forward in this journey. I wish there were more stars to give.

Very knowledgeable team

Great experience, easy to ask questions and very knowledgeable. Team is great — I’ve enjoyed the classes and am enjoying myself.

Job offers a month later

Really enjoyed the course — everything was so practical and interesting. Went to Split and along with the whole experience and certification, also made lifetime friends. The manager helps you with a lot of stuff afterwards — I needed help with obtaining the Seaman’s book, had some questions about signing a contract and had all the help I needed from Drazen. Really happy with how everything turned out — only a month later I was getting job offers.

Good teachers and a fun time in Croatia

Excellent course — I had a really good experience, good teachers and a fun time in Croatia. I appreciate the effort they put into the lessons — they were well structured and very understandable. They always helped us with all our doubts. I definitely recommend the course and I’m grateful for all the support and information about the yachting industry that Drazen gave to us.

Perfect place for new crew

So nice to get to be part of a yacht crew community and get all RYA Powerboat and MCA STCW training in one package including the Medical ENG1. But what I enjoyed most was the help with my Yacht CV and finding a Deckhand job. Perfect place for new crew to start.

Top-quality education and support

I recently had the pleasure of attending a yacht training course at Yachtie Careers and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. Drazen, the chief officer in charge, played a pivotal role in making the experience seamless and enjoyable. His expertise and dedication were evident in every aspect of the training. Drazen was always available to assist us, addressing any questions or concerns we had promptly and effectively. The training itself was comprehensive and well-structured. With Drazen at the helm, you can be assured of receiving top-quality education and support. I highly recommend this centre to anyone looking to pursue a career in the yachting industry.

All my friends landed jobs weeks after

YachtieCareers have been very supportive and helpful every step of the way! They were extremely patient and friendly throughout the whole process, and simplified everything. Thanks to them, I was able to get licensed and certified, and all my friends were able to land jobs only weeks after having done the training! An overall outstanding experience.

Good stepping stone

YachtieCareers has been a good stepping stone into the introduction of the Yachting industry. They have equipped me with all the knowledge needed to start this journey. The team are always there to help with quick replies and guidance. I would highly recommend joining the team!

Dream job on a charter

Above and beyond

Had such an incredible experience with Yachtie Careers. Did my STCW and stewardess training through them in Split, Croatia — absolutely recommend. They went above and beyond, inviting us onboard a 55m private MY for a tour and taking our CV pictures. What a cool opportunity. Thank you Yachtie Careers!

Hands-on instructors on WhatsApp

I am currently taking the Full Stewardess STCW course and so far I have had nothing but a positive experience! The content is incredibly informative and useful and it’s all completely online, except for the in-person STCW week in Croatia which is completely included in the package. The instructors are beyond helpful and are so easy to talk to, and if you’re planning to make the career switch, this is the best way forward! Having hands-on instructors that you can talk to via WhatsApp has been the best part of the whole experience! Definitely recommend.

All-in-one package

Very happy. I got all the STCW Certificates, MCA approved Security Awareness, STCW Crowd Management, Food and Hygiene Level 2 and even the option to get an ENG1 during the training week! It really is an all-in-one package — they also write your CV and connect you to yachts. I landed a short-term position in Monaco a few days after the training and I am very close to getting my first permanent role now with the help of the team.

Help from flights to visas

Currently I am busy with Yachtiecareers stewardess courses and the instructors are quite remarkable — they help me with everything I ask them, from flights to visas to my courses!!!

Fantastic support structure

Just started and they have a fantastic support structure in place. They break down all concerns in a super informative way, describing what to expect on the different sized ships and the benefits each has. They’ve built on decades of experience to educate and train people in this niche industry that is both exciting and awesome. The training staff has been responsive and helpful since my first contact. Lovely place!
