Within this section of Sail Training International, you’ll find information on the best ways, as a welfare professional, to support the application of a trainee for sail training.
Our sail training adventures predominantly focus on our Tall Ships Races and Regattas, as well as endorsed events. However, there are also opportunities to take part in sail training throughout the year, thanks to our membership National Sail Training Organisations (NSTOs).
There are many target-based and benchmarked metrics available to measure the development of an individual in today’s society. Unfortunately, simply recording the apparent success or failure of an individual’s development against these arbitrary measurements doesn’t capture some of the vital attributes of a well-rounded person.
Social interaction, independence, confidence, self-management, and determination in the face of adversity are just a few examples of crucial, developed attributes that are not easily measureable. The work undertaken by Sail On Board and Sail Training International seeks to help develop these for trainees taking part in the sail training experience.
If you’d like help finding and booking your adventure – we’re here to help you every step of the way. Even if you haven’t quite decided on what you want to do, and where you want to go, we can guide you through the process. From finding an event and ships that’s right for you, to contacting a vessel, or finding out more about funding options.
