I took the Ship Brokerage and Chartering course at Stanmore School of Business to enhance my skills in the field. The course was pretty cool, and I liked how it covered the basics of ship brokerage, like understanding the different types of charters and how to negotiate contracts. I also appreciated the focus on practical skills, such as calculating freight rates and managing vessel operations. The course materials were decent, but I felt that some of the topics could have been explored in more depth. Still, I learned a lot and had some great discussions with my classmates. The instructors were also super helpful and responsive to our questions. All in all, it was a solid course that met my expectations.
