They have lived and learned what it truly means to serve – from billionaires to NOW serving those they care MOST about – YOU.

This course was absolutely amazing. I enjoyed every moment of it and learned so many new skills. It gives you a lot of insight into what to expect and makes you feel prepared. It was such a wonderful experience. Thank you so much!

I had such an amazing learning experience. This course made me so excited to start my yachting career, and I loved the people I met while entering this new chapter in my life. The lectures were laid out great, and my teachers made every class fun and exciting.

Excellent course. The interaction was fantastic. Getting lectures from people who are currently in yachting or have just left the industry helps keep everything relevant and up to date. Everything was great. I really loved every moment of the SYNC Stewardess Course. It helped me gain a better insight into the yachting industry and what is typically expected from me on board. I have a much better understanding now and won’t feel blindsided when I get my first job.

SYNC was an inclusive and safe learning environment where I felt comfortable the moment I walked through the doors. The girls I met in class feel like my best friends, and Jamie was incredible. I don’t want it to end! Jamie is so inspiring and knowledgeable. I want her as my Chief Stewardess. Being on M/Y Princess Emma was also great. I learned so much in just one day.

I landed my dream job on a yacht all thanks to this course! Megan and Cierra couldn’t have possibly prepared me any better to make a great first impression and keep up with very high standards on board. Finding work and being one of countless greenies is really tough, but having my SYNC qualification really set me apart from the rest and I entirely owe my job to it. I can’t thank you enough, Megan and Cierra. I’d recommend this course without any hesitation to anybody considering it!

It was very interactive and fun. Not one moment did I feel bored. Jamie has the ability to make everything interesting. One of the best weeks of my life! Not only did I learn so much about the yachting industry, but I also learned so many life lessons.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at SYNC. The tutors are truly amazing and prepare you for what to expect. It has been such a blast, and I can’t wait to give my tutor a call when I find my boat so I can thank her! Thank you. I really enjoyed meeting the other girls and working with the passionate tutors, from whom I’ve learned so much and who have given me so much knowledge.
