MINDGYM WORKOUT

The competence of a Seafarer is a critical factor in the safe and efficient operations of a ship. This became the foundation of Crystal Shipping, Inc. in cooperation with its training arm Ne Plus Ultra Training Center (NPUTC), whose purpose is to effectively constitute comprehensive measures designed to improve the standards of competency of Filipino Seafarers globally. Crystal Shipping, Inc. and Ne Plus Ultra Training Center focus not only on educating the Seafarers on the safety of the ship's operation but also on the security and well-being of their co-workers and themselves.

Crystal Shipping, Inc. and Ne Plus Ultra Training Center (NPUTC) recognize that the shipping industry is under increasing pressure to promote security and safety and to demonstrate the quality of their management. It is no longer enough to have the statutory certificates for the ships and their personnel. The industry must now comply with the mandatory international requirements for the safety management system (SMS) and show that they have effective crew management in accordance with Maritime Labor Commission MLC 2006.

As such, Crystal Shipping, Inc. and Ne Plus Ultra Training Center (NPUTC) envision themselves as a dynamic maritime learning organization that continually explores innovations in order to meet the ever-changing needs of both the Maritime Personnel and the Maritime Industry.
