Learning Objectives:
SSTG was founded in 2013 by Leon Mouton with the intention to service the training needs of the wider Maritime communities. Subsequently the group grew to a multi-center institution with the focus on enhancing accessibility and effectively reducing training costs to break down barriers to entry in the maritime industry.
Our focus is on life-long-learning promoting the use of technologies. For this reason we were the first institution in South Africa to offer online STCW courses. Our accreditations are in line with STCW and STCW-F requirements through SAMSA.
SSTG is committed to preserve life by focusing on excellent maritime safety training. No student will be left behind, and we will not be satisfied with sub-standard achievements.
With this mindset, we address maritime safety training with a passion to make a difference in the lives of our local maritime community, and that of our international clientele as we expand globally.
We believe that maritime training should be as realistic as possible, and we do so by recreating real-world circumstances in a safe and professionally supervised environment.
