Training and Development
At Bibby Ship Management, seafarer training is not merely an aspect of our service, it underpins our entire philosophy on manning. Today’s marine environment demands the highest level of training so, in order to give added value and an increased level of expertise to both clients and seafarers, we have a dedicated and highly committed Training Department.
All of our programmes are designed to provide seafarers with the skills and knowledge that can help them get the most out of their careers. With our own fleet of merchant and offshore vessels and through working with the leading industry bodies, we deliver the training and competencies required to maintain the safe and efficient operation of modern vessels.
