01 The Problem

Traditional schools cost you more than tuition.

Every credential program built for a brick-and-mortar classroom asks the same thing of you. Time off the boat, money out of pocket, a calendar that fights yours.

Traditional School

What it costs you

Lost wages

Sit in a classroom or sit on the boat earning. You can’t do both. Every week of school is a week of pay you’ll never get back.

The travel tax

Hotels, flights, rental cars, meals, parking. The “tuition” is just the start. Add it up and the real cost doubles.

Inflexible schedules

Schools run on academic calendars. Your boat runs on rotation. The two don’t speak the same language.

Beacon Maritime Training

What we changed

Keep your full rotation

Study during your off-weeks, between watches, or wherever fits. Nothing about your work schedule needs to change.

Zero travel cost

No hotels. No flights. No rental car. The only thing you spend money on is the course itself.

Self-paced, all year

Start any day. Move at your speed. No semesters, no cohorts, no waiting for the next class to open.
