01 — OUR MISSION
A clearer path from maritime experience to recognised skills.
Skills4Sea is a European Erasmus+ project focused on improving how non-technical skills are understood, trained and recognised in the maritime sector.
While technical competencies are well defined, essential skills such as communication, teamwork, leadership and decision-making are often developed informally and remain difficult to assess.
The project introduces a structured and practical approach to bridge this gap by combining research, training methodologies, and digital tools aligned with European and international maritime standards.

More than technical proficiency.
Addressing gaps in maritime non-technical skills training.
Human error
A large number of maritime incidents are linked to failures in communication and decision-making.
Unclear skills
Key competencies like leadership and teamwork are not clearly defined or standardised.
No structured system
There is no common framework to define and manage non-technical skills in maritime training.
03 — YOUR EXPERTISE MATTERS
Help shape what maritime competence looks like.
We invite educators, maritime professionals and industry representatives to review the Skills4Sea approach and contribute evidence-based feedback.
