"The program boosted my self-confidence and gave me newfound direction. I definitely encourage school leavers to have a go.”
Lylellah reflects that her sea-time experience on board Pacific Towing, Consort Express Lines and Swire Shipping vessels was very enriching and the people she worked closely with from these companies were instrumental in her successful training.
Her real-world experiences are ever changing, and she learns something new about sea vessel operations every day.
Applications for Maritime Cadetship for Women are currently open until 8 July 2022.
