Why become a Shipping Trainee?
In the journey of life, few adventures rival the thrill of a career in shipping. For young people pondering their next move, the maritime industry offers not only an exciting opportunity but also an incredible path to personal and professional development.
In this article, we explore why a career in shipping is more than just a job – it’s an entryway to a world of opportunities.
But first, let’s clarify: What exactly is a Shipping Trainee, and what are their responsibilities?
As a Shipping Trainee, you learn, gain hands-on experience, and contribute to the smooth sailing of ship transport. You dive deep into the ins and outs of ship operations, and you understand the impact of the international trade market, international regulations, and geopolitics on one’s daily life and the broader maritime landscape.
For those considering a career in the maritime industry or those open to embracing a new world of opportunities, Leth Danish Straits is currently welcoming applicants for its international trainee programme.
In a two-year programme, the trainees develop skills and expertise in logistics and supply chain management, alternating between on-the-job training and classroom modules with trainees from other shipping companies.
Many wonder whether aspiring trainees need any shipping qualifications or if they need extensive knowledge about shipping before entering the industry.
In short, no! Background-wise the trainees need a completed high school diploma or similar relevant education. However, shipping companies prioritize personal skills such as a service-oriented mindset, a willingness to embark on a challenging journey, and the eagerness to learn from this remarkable industry.
As a result, the shipping agencies promise trainees an international work platform where no two days are alike and a robust international business education with promising career opportunities.
So, to all the aspiring Shipping Trainees out there, we say: Forge ahead with determination and embrace the challenges. The journey as a Shipping Trainee holds countless possibilities for growth and learning. May fair winds be with you.
