WE HEAR FROM YOU - THE MENTEES
 
AN INTERVIEW WITH COMING ASHORE MENTEE - JAMES NAIDOO
We caught up with one of our Coming Ashore mentees, James Naidoo, to see how the programme has helped him during his journey. 

James has now completed his transition from sea to shore with help and guidance from mentor, Andy Hill.

RESOURCES
Don't forget to take advantage of the plethora of resources you have at your disposal through the Coming Ashore programme:

Spotlight Profiling Tool

We are offering free access to the Spotlight’s personality profiling tool  for our Coming Ashore members.

In order to forge a successful path on the Coming Ashore programme, it is vital to have heightened self-awareness and clarity on your development when changing occupations.
Understanding your behavioural traits and how to channel them in a way that benefits you and your career could provide that all important advantage that is often needed to thrive in a role, or to help you get that role you want.
This tool takes you through a 15-minute development form testing your knowledge of your own ability on a plethora of work related tasks. The answers to these questions will highlight your strengths, risks, frustrations and challenges, building a comprehensive summary of your individual personality and style.
You can then assign yourself a development goal from your results and address the challenge you have set yourself by changing your behaviour accordingly.

 

 

Free access to Learn@Sea suite

Our Coming Ashore programme provides free access to our Learn@Sea education suite.

This has recently expanded with new courses being added to the collection, including Environment@Sea. Meteorology@Sea is also very close to being added to the Learn@Sea dashboard, giving you access to courses that cover a new area of the sector we haven't exposed our audience to before.

Go to our Learn@Sea page to find out more and to sign up.

Ports are essential in facilitating the movement of goods from one area of the world to another.  Over time the size and complexity of ports have increased, but the basic needs remain the same.
