Marine Safety Instructor Training and Commercial Fishing Vessel Safety Instructor Training are two slightly different versions of AMSEA's premier train-the-trainer course.

Onboard Drills Courses, both 10-hour and 18-hour versions, are designed to meet USCG requirements for commercial fishermen. They are valuable for other mariners as well.

Upright & Watertight, an eight-hour commercial fishing vessel stability and damage control course.

AMSEA provided various different courses for Alaska's recreational and subsistence boaters.

Outdoor Survival Educators Workshops are designed for teachers and others who work with children.

AMSEA courses can also be customized to meet the needs of boaters and the boating practices of a specific area or industry. Learn more about Customized Cold Water Safety & Survival Training.
