Description
The Yacht Owner’s Representative Program (YORP) is the fully-accredited qualification designed to set a new industry standard for the role of an Owner's Representative (OR).
The program has been developed to provide a deep understanding and practical knowledge on the leadership, operational and technical skills required for this role. It is directed at all existing and aspiring owner’s representatives, project managers, captains, officers and contractors working in any shipyard on behalf of a yacht owner.
Backed by SYBAss and accredited by IAMI & GUEST, the learning outcomes of the YORP were conceived by a team of experienced owner’s representatives and shipyard project managers. Developed as a two-part program, the YORP is delivered exclusively by valued and certified IAMI & GUEST training provider, The Crew Academy.
The Crew Academy Course
The core operational and technical aspects of the program are covered in a comprehensive three-part online program by The Crew Academy, in collaboration with specialist contractors, shipyard personnel and other industry experts.
This course covers all the practical tools ORs need to have in order to deliver a new build or refit: from project management and compliance; to the finer details of yacht design and build; as well as financial, legal and administrative knowledge.
