SailTime's Novice to Captain program was designed
for two main reasons:
1. To give those new to boating the skills and confidence
they need to do easy, day sails. Members enrolled
in the 1st Tier of our program
complete a series of simple theory and practical
training systems. Once they are 100% confident in
their abilities to skipper the boat and have proven
their skill on the water, they are able to use the
boat on their own.
2. To teach experienced power boaters how to cruise
for longer periods of time and in a greater variety
of conditions. The Novice to Captain also provides
additional theory certifications and practical experience
that is monitored through the SailTime E-ttendant
system, and reported on-line through an interactive,
real-time personalized boating resume.
SailTime's Novice to Captain
Program combines theory training with practical power
boating experience. It offers three distinct levels
of comprehensive certifications. The Novice to Captain
Program is receiving major recognition thanks to its
unique, trackable results.
The SailTime Novice to Captain Program also builds
and maintains your on-line power boating resume. The
Program eliminates the need for you to complete lengthy
resumes for charter companies. Instead, your personal
resume is hosted on the SailTime site. You can give
the charter company the link or print your resume
and fax it to the company. You don't even need to
maintain it. Our electronic E-ttendant system automatically
updates your resume after each outing.
Your resume will include:
• The number of trips under your command
• The average length of your outing
• Your theory certifications gained from other
organizations
• Your actual practical experience gained through
SailTime.
