What do the stewardess courses cover?

Welcome to Crew Pacific's ‘Internationally recognized Eight-day and Five-Day Super Yacht Steward and Stewardess’ training course. The Eight-day and Five-day courses have been specifically designed and tailored to the Super yacht industry. The courses are ‘Internationally’ recognised by Seven International crewing agencies around the world, including Crew Pacific, which will assist you into full-time employment.

The courses are aimed at those with knowledge and experience within the Hospitality and Customer Service Industry, who would like to advance their skills into the Super Yacht Industry.
