INTERNATIONAL CRUISE TRAINING CENTRE

The global cruise industry is expanding

rapidly and there is currently a severe

shortage of qualified staff. Training for

each potential staff member is often

conducted at different geographical

locations, at multiple sites, and must fit

into the schedules of different training

providers increasing costs for employers

and students.

Current training facilities also serve other

industrial sectors and less than a handful

globally are geared to the cruise industry

specifically. Even if the cruise lines were to

retain 100% of their current staff complement

they would still require an additional 70,000

additional staff members in 2019 alone.

INTERNATIONAL CRUISE HOSPITALITY TRAINING FACILITY RECEIVES €1.78M IN SEED FUNDING

Through the Regional Development

Fund, Clare County Council was

awarded €1.78m in funding to support

their investment in developing an

International Cruise Hospitality Training

Facility with its partners. Flagship

Maritime Consultants are the world’s

leading maritime recruitment firm and

SEFtec NMCI Offshore, a joint venture

between one of the world’s premier

maritime training providers, the National

Maritime College of Ireland, and SEFtec a

global leader in the design, manufacture,

installation, commission and service of

training simulators for the maritime

industry.

INTERNATIONAL CRUISE HOSPITALITY TRAINING GROUP SERVING THE GLOBAL CRUISE INDUSTRY

A large site on the River Shannon zoned

for maritime development was chosen

because of its close proximity to

international airports (Shannon, Cork,

Dublin) and the presence of US Customs

& Immigration clearance at these airports.

The site contains a large stately mansion

and separate accommodation and

recreational blocks. Investment is being

made to upgrade these facilities to offer

the mandatory maritime training courses

required by cruise firms for their hospitality

staff, as well as the space and support for

companies to deliver their own bespoke

courses. It is expected that training will

begin in 2020 and upon completion of all

phases of development the facility will

deliver turnover in excess of 3,500 courses

per annum on the existing site. A further

120 acres adjacent to the facility has been

zoned for maritime economic

development, allowing for significant

expansion of the facility in the future.
