    * You can view the content of each lecture via the link at right. ClassNK Academy Brochure

Academy course materials are developed based on ClassNK’s extensive knowledge of maritime regulations, cutting-edge research and the data and experience gained over more than a century of classification and related activities.

The course content is basically aimed at providing new employees and those with as yet limited practical experience at various companies with basic technical knowledge about shipbuilding and shipping. Of course, the material also includes the latest technical information and thus allows participants to obtain “work-ready” knowledge.

Certificate of Completion

After each course, ClassNK will issue certificates of completion to the attendees as proof of completion.
