Shipping professionals are on a continuous learning curve to keep pace with developments
Being an expert in one field is no longer enough – an awareness of the whole business is essential. Environmental issues impact economics, political shifts open up threats and opportunities, changes in law, finance, marketing, energy and technology all create fresh challenges.
For those needing the big picture, whether through changing roles, entering the shipping industry for the first time or as a refresher, the Anatomy of Shipping intensive two-week course provides the answers.
In a programme of lectures, discussion groups, workshops and case studies, students of all ages from a diverse range of business backgrounds develop strong working relationships. Personalities, skills, knowledge, opinions and strengths all contribute to a highly-focused learning experience within a university setting, removed from the daily pressures of the workplace.
The lecturers, all practicing shipping professionals or leading academics contribute their knowledge and experience and are continually reviewing and updating the curriculum.
Three decades of creating better shipping professionals
Since its foundation in 1978, Anatomy of Shipping has benefited over 1,700 shipping professionals. Shipowners, ship managers, bankers, charterers, marine superintendents, brokers, shipbuilders and cargo interests - all sectors are represented in the student roll.
Students receive comprehensive study materials including all the lectures on CD-ROM and on completion of the course a Certificate of Attendance.
