Description

This webinar explores the evolving role of the Purser in yachting and the varied career pathways to grow into the position. 

Traditionally, the Purser was promoted into the role after rising up through the Interior department. However, we're now seeing Pursers come from a range of different backgrounds and departments, including Deck, Bridge, and the Galley, as well as those from a non-yachting background such as administration or accounting.

In this session, you'll gain insights into the responsibilities, career pathways, and essential qualifications needed to excel in this dynamic field.

 

Who is it for? 

Whether you're an experienced Purser looking to progress within your current position, someone aspiring to move into this role, or anyone managing onboard operations, this webinar will provide valuable insights to help you succeed in this dynamic field.

 

What you'll learn:

  • What Pursers Do: Find out what a Purser's daily tasks and responsibilities are, from managing money and taking care of guests to ensuring safety and supporting the crew.
  • Build Your Career: Learn about different career options for Pursers and how to grow in this role.
  • Skills for Success: Discover the skills, knowledge, and qualifications that are important for a successful Purser, and why choosing accredited training is vital.
  • Why Accreditation Matters: Learn about the CoC route and understand why gaining qualifications from recognised institutions is crucial, especially with the rise of fake certificates.

You will also have the opportunity to ask your questions directly to our Head of Training and former Purser, Julia Harris, who has a wealth of experience and knowledge.
