Upon successful completion, you will receive a digital certificate confirming your course completion. The type of certificate and any applicable flag State, STCW, or other regulatory approval are clearly stated on the individual course page.

Is the certificate officially approved or internationally recognized?
Approval and recognition depend on the specific course. Some Marine Pro Academy courses are delivered under recognized flag State or training-provider approvals, while others are professional development or maritime e-learning courses resulting in a Marine Pro Academy Certificate of Completion. Please refer to the individual course description for the exact approval and certification status.

Is this course STCW or flag State approved?
Where a course carries STCW, Panama, Liberia, Cyprus, or another official approval, this is specifically stated on the product page. Courses that do not display an approval are offered as professional training or continuing education and issue a Marine Pro Academy Certificate of Completion.

Can I use the certificate for employment?
This depends on the course and your employer’s, vessel’s, flag State’s, or competent authority’s requirements.
