For more information regarding this course, do not hesitate to contact one of our crew training centres.

This intensive 7-day course is designed to thoroughly prepare individuals for the MCA OOW Deck Oral Examination. Tailored specifically for those scheduled to undertake the examination, our approach at Bluewater emphasizes small class sizes of approximately six candidates. This fosters a focused and intensive revision week where candidates engage in peer-to-peer interactions, simulating the examination environment in a supportive yet challenging manner.

While participation in this course is not mandatory, many candidates find the oral preparation invaluable in boosting their confidence and readiness for the examination.

Please note that classes in Europe consist of a mix of OOW and Masters candidates, and you will be assigned to workgroups accordingly.
