Training course to become an inland waterway skipper
Ahoy! Do you enjoy being outside in the fresh air?
Do you like being outside in the fresh air and facing challenges? Then being a skipper of an inland waterway vessel is just the job for you!
As a skipper, you are at home on the water. You will be deployed on one of our very different types of vessels from day one of your training course and can help transport dry and liquid goods on inland waterway vessels. You will get to know the life of a skipper at close quarters on board a vessel during your three-year training course and become part of a small crew family.
We naturally do not neglect the theoretical part during your training course. The vocational college for skippers is unique in Germany. You will spend 9 months on board the “Rhine Training Ship” in Duisburg during your training course and attend the skippers’ vocational college there. You will be accommodated on the training vessel with about 100 other cabin boys and girls. You will also be taught the fundamental skills required by a skipper.
The job of skipper is not only one of the most exciting apprenticeships in Germany, but also provides you with numerous future prospects. After your training course, you can acquire the skipper’s licence in a very short time and soon steer your own vessel. A large number of opportunities for further training are available at HGK Shipping after you have completed your initial course.
We are currently training people at the following business locations:
