Some Academy members are high school leavers, others may be older and seeking a change in their life path. Some will be Australian citizens. Others will be migrants. Some are graduates gaining experience in cruise ship operations or Maritime sea time. Others are seeking River Community skills. All join Academy as special persons with the same student member status. We all learn from each other.
Regardless, your Academy experience will be challenging and different from anything you have done before. Enjoy the experience!
The "Good Person" is one of our highest expectations. We all help you to earn that reputation. Academy understanding of "The Good Person'" is discussed in class at the beginning of your time with Academy. It is closely linked with your well being and life balance. Work hard. Play hard. Eat well. Rest well. Love well.
