Description

Are you looking for a team building session that will really push the boundaries? Do you want team members to gain from the experience as well as enjoy it? If you want to develop a group of employees into a highly functioning team whilst pushing what they believe is achievable, then look no further.

At The Maritime Skills Academy we use real Marine Survival Training to put groups through their paces but still maintain the core principles of any team building event. Team work takes on a whole new meaning, when NOT using it can mean the difference between life and death.

Using our state-of-the-art training facilities, your team can take part in a realistic life raft launch, rescue casualties from the sea survival pool, enter a burning ship module and carry out firefighting procedures.

Practical exercises provide each delegate with the opportunity to build their own confidence, increase their trust and confidence in others and find strengths they didn’t know they had. All sessions will be run by The Maritime Skills Academy trainers who have a wealth of industry knowledge and will ensure this team building session will be like no other.

Experiences can be adapted for the individual client depending on their expectations and requirements, but below is an outline for a recent Team Building Day for Saga Cruises Operations Department:

Sessions:

- Marine Evacuation System Drill
- Life Jacket Water Entry - each delegate will don a life jacket and enter the water from the pool side and demonstrate three methods of casualty handling in the water both in pairs and as a group

- Buoy Challenge - a “Breeches Buoy” system will be rigged for the safe transferal of all other team/crew members to the raft
