That is why we consider that investment in personnel training is a strategic option which has tangible benefits in terms of: technical performance: properly trained personnel are able to work to higher standards and in a more efficient manner commitment to excellence: a willingness to invest in human resources demonstrates a commitment to quality, reliability and safety attracting the right people: an employer who invests time and money in the highest standards of training and education has an immediate competitive advantage in terms of attracting talented job candidates. RINA has always enjoyed a widely respected reputation for personnel training, which has traditionally been conducted by means of technical courses designed to prepare its employees for the exacting, high-quality work demanded of them. For the past ten years or so RINA has also run courses on a variety of technical subjects for external interested parties, including its core business customers such as owners and operators, boat builders, yacht managers and representatives of various Flag Administrations. Many of our course programmes have received official recognition from influential third parties such as flag state administrations and certification bodies. Having worked over a long period of time in co-operation with shipyards on both ship design and construction, we have many experts who are highly skilled in many different aspects of maritime technology and who can provide quality training in their respective areas of competence, including: theoretical concepts regulatory issues best practice and cost-effective solutions. RINA Courses for Yachting The RINA Academy for Ship Operators offers a series of technical courses on different subjects of primary interest to personnel of yacht management companies, operators and boat builders. The courses are divided into 4 topic areas: International Regulations Ship Building, Operation and Management Fleet Management Specific Vessel Type. All courses are conducted in Italian or English by senior RINA staff with proven experience across the full range of industry skills, including plan approval, rule development, construction surveillance and consultancy. The courses are intended for skilled personnel working in yacht management and operation and wishing to further their knowledge of a specific subject or field, as well as for postgraduates at the beginning of their professional career, needing to complement their academic skills with advanced training focused on the actual practice of yacht operation. Each course is accompanied by supporting material. Catalogue course programmes can be adapted to better suit customer needs in terms of both content and duration. Requests for training on specific subjects not included in the course catalogue will also be taken into consideration. Many course programmes include case studies, some of which can be tailor-made to reflect specific customer interests, for example ship types, national regulations and operational aspects.
