Maritime Competence Academy
Our Flagship Program "Academy of Maritime Competence" is entirely devoted to education. This is our way of improving the skills of potential employees in the domestic offshore energy sector. We initiate and support training and consult on curricula at various levels. The program also aims to organize internships and apprenticeships with the cooperation of experienced foreign companies and institutions.

Educational initiatives
Education is one of the pillars of our activities, as the development of offshore wind energy in the Baltic Sea depends on the quality of future personnel. Therefore, back in 2015, we were the first in Poland to conduct more than a year-long comprehensive education and information campaign on offshore wind farms. Since then, we have been actively involved in initiatives aimed at pupils and students at every level of education.
For elementary school pupils
We are involved in activities related to the education of future staff at all levels of education
- Together with the Municipality of Rumia and Rumia Invest Park, we have signed a Letter of Intent on cooperation within the Pomeranian Maritime Renewable Energy Competence Centre. We participate in direct meetings with young people, spreading knowledge about offshore wind energy.
- We supported the project "Wind Energy – Energy of Freedom" – an educational program for 900 students of primary and secondary schools in the Lębork, Słupsk and Wejherowo districts.
- We organized 3 editions of the educational project "One Sea, Many Benefits. Offshore wind energy in my region" in primary and secondary schools in the municipalities of Ustka, Redzikowo and Łeba. In total, about 4500 students took part in all editions of the project in the school year 2023/2024 and 2024/2025. The aim was to bring the offshore wind sector closer and the new professional opportunities it creates.
- In 2023 and 2024 we participated in two editions of EduOffshore Wind in Gdańsk, an educational and vocational fair for pupils, students and graduates of secondary schools and universities.
For secondary school pupils
In 2022, we are participated in a workshop for high school students entitled "Onshore & offshore = our future" in three Gdansk technical schools - Conradinum Shipbuilding and Technical School, Energy School Complex in Gdansk and Maritime School Complex in Gdansk.
For students
We have established cooperation with the Faculty of Ocean Engineering and Shipbuilding at Gdansk University of Technology - the faculty educating future employees in the offshore wind energy sector. As a result, postgraduate students gained access to the latest knowledge in the field of offshore wind energy.
