Our course provides you with a knowledgeable study buddy, who is a fully qualified Chief Engineer with years of experience, and who is just a phone call, WhatsApp message, email, or even a zoom call away.
Rather than relying on traditional one or two-week Zoom lectures aimed at forcing information into your head, our approach offers you direct access to a Chief Engineer. The remarkable aspect of this method is that the Chief Engineer is likely still actively working at sea, equipped with first hand experience and access to real equipment and shipboard information, which they can share with you. Even if the assigned tutor is not currently at sea, they have access to an extensive database of engineers who are. This ensures that you receive practical and up-to-date insights from professionals with direct industry involvement.
We use a relaxed method to help students prepare for their oral exams. This approach includes mock oral exams, video demonstrations of how certain equipment looks and operates, and access to study materials that focus on their areas of weakness.
Upon purchase, you will receive an email containing introductions and information on what to do next. The month does not commence when payment is made, rather you and your tutor will agree on a start date. With PocketChief, you'll have a reliable study buddy at your fingertips to guide you through your studies.
We have extensive contacts in the industry, including the Yachting sector. By using our services you will be on our database of professional seafarers. If a job role comes up that may be suitable, you may be notified to see if you would like to apply and how to send your CV to those Chief Engineers and Captains that otherwise may never have heard of you.
