Whether you are pursuing a career as a Deck Officer, Engineering Officer, or Electro-Technical Officer, our comprehensive training programs ensure that you meet the highest industry standards.

Our Certification Programs Include:

  • Officer of the Watch (OOW) Certification: This is the first step in your maritime career. The OOW certification qualifies you to manage navigational watches on ships, ensuring the safety of the vessel, crew, and cargo. Through our training, you will gain the practical experience and theoretical knowledge required for this critical role.
  • Second Engineer Officer Certification: Our certification program for engineers is designed to provide the technical knowledge and practical skills needed to manage the mechanical and electrical systems onboard. The Second Engineer Officer certification prepares you to take on significant responsibilities within the engine room.
  • Chief Mate Certification: As a Chief Mate, you will oversee the deck department and act as the Captain’s deputy. SSTG’s training and certification program equips you with the leadership, operational management, and navigational skills needed for this advanced maritime role.
  • Chief Engineer Officer Certification: For those who aspire to be the senior officer in charge of a ship’s engine department, our Chief Engineer Officer certification offers comprehensive training in managing the technical and operational aspects of the ship’s engineering systems.
  • STCW Basic Safety Training: The Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping (STCW) is a globally recognised certification necessary for all seafarers. Our STCW Basic Safety Training course covers essential safety skills, including fire prevention, first aid, survival techniques, and personal safety.
  • Electro-Technical Officer (ETO) Certification: With modern ships’ increasing technological complexity, the demand for ETOs has risen. Our ETO certification equips you with the expertise to manage electronic and electrical systems onboard, ensuring the vessel’s smooth operation.
