Training, Standards and SyllabusesEdit
The MNTB promote seafarer training in the UK and are responsible for the official UK government training syllabuses for Merchant Navy Officers.[5] Officers are issued with an MNTB training portfolio which must be completed.[5]
Together with OPITO (the international skills organisation for the energy industry), the MNTB provide a training programme for transitioning between the oil and gas industry into shipping.[6][7][8]
In 2020, the MNTB launched a Careers at Sea initiative to highlight maritime careers.[9] Additionally, in 2020, in partnership with the Merchant Navy Welfare Board and several maritime charities, the MNTB launched a Mental Health Awareness and Wellbeing Training Standard.[10]
