Open Days & Events
Thank you to everyone who attend our Open Day on Friday 22 nd January 2010.
The day was a great success and despite the heavy rain the attendance hit the all time high of 320 potential cadets plus families and friends, making a total of around 550 visitors over all.
As we have come to expect people travelled from all over the country with the furthest north, south, east and west being Aberdeen, Alderney, Great Yarmouth and the Scilly Isles, respectively.
The company representatives were kept very busy throughout the day and were impressed by both the numbers and the quality of the young people they met.
We hope you had a good day and obtained all the information you needed, if you have any further questions or any comments then contact us at wma@solent.ac.uk|

Annual Open Day
Our next open day is Friday 21st January 2011 from 10am to 4pm.
The Open Day aims to give prospective officer cadets an insight into what a career in the shipping industry has to offer and the training programmes necessary to become qualified as a ship's navigation or engineer officer.
Many of the major British shipping companies currently recruiting cadets will attend to give information about the career opportunities that they can offer.
Cadets under training will also be on hand to share some first hand experiences of the career that they have chosen.
A number of our training facilities will be open and visitors will be able to take part in demonstrations and exercises designed to give a flavour of life at sea. These will include the Ship's Bridge Simulator and Engine Room Simulator.
