Bespoke Courses

When you partner with us, you gain more than just a training provider. You acquire a strategic ally in fostering a culture of better human performance on the basis of learning and growth. Our learning and development solutions instil principles and approaches that transcend individual development, positively influencing organisational and team dynamics.

We work with 5
human performance pillars

Our research and data indicate that these five pillars (Leadership, Reviews, Work Structure, Behaviour, and HR Architecture) are the essential components for developing human performance. Together, they provide a holistic approach to managing how people perform at work.

Success does not rely on just one part but comes from having all parts working well together. By focusing on these pillars, organisations can create a conducive environment that helps individuals and the whole team do their best and thrive, leading to sustained positive outcomes.

Tailored Human Performance Courses

We will help you diagnose pertinent issues to tailor the right combination of courses

Green-Jakobsen’s reach is worldwide—with more than 30,000 seafarers attending our industry-relevant human performance courses designed exclusively for the maritime industry.

We offer a range of courses aligned with our five human performance pillars.

Our flexible course solutions will meet your various learning and development needs to help improve your overall human performance.

Upgrade your people in areas such as maritime leadership, safety, performance assessment and management, health and well-being, culture, communication, and more.

We recommend that you contact us to design the right courses for your needs.

What our clients say

One of the strongest points at Stenersen is how we develop our people—how we try to lift them with values-based decision-making—and connect it with all the training we give them. The consistency is the strongest point in our development—even if some of the training seems repetitive, it evolves. The training provided ten years ago is still related to the training we give now.
