DYW Live: NPA Maritime Studies (Full Year Course)

Work Inspiration and Preparation Provided by University of the Highland and Islands

DYW Live is working with the University of the Highlands and Islands (UHI) to offer the Maritime Studies National Progression Award to learners across Scotland. This full year course will be taught via live lessons delivered on MS Teams on Glow, starting in August 2023.

There are a wide range of career pathways in the Maritime industry such as apprenticeships in aquaculture, fishing, deck crew positions in the merchant navy, engineering & deck officer cadetships and a range of careers in the Royal Navy.

Candidates who complete the NPA Maritime Studies can progress into further studies that will allow them to gain the necessary qualifications to apply for cadetships.

The course is assessed through a combination of short coursework and invigilated assessments.
Invigilated assessments will be carried out by local school staff and sent to UHI staff for marking.
Classes should have suitable supervision arrangements to ensure that everyone is able to engage constructively in the lessons.
