Instructor Mike is definitely a 10+++++ In this course it is crucial to feel completely safe and secure with the one in charge of the class, Mike's professionalism is admirable. Thanks!
The staff at MPT have been extremely helpful through my entire STCW training. The firefighters were awesome at teaching the two day class.
I learned a great deal, and felt that the teachers and staff wern't just there to get paid, but rather they genuinly wanted to help other people. Thankyou
I haven't any suggestion for improvement as MPTs' maritime professional personnel, facility and reputation, far preceded my basic need for your expert guidance and assistance; after all it would be very difficult to suggest change where the business of (MARITIME INDUSTRY) education and training is the legacy of MPT which proves your school a very highly invaluable institution available to all Mariners locally, domestic and Internationally!
Instructors are very informative.
Excellent course!
MPT is a true professionals school

MY FEEDBACK IS ON THE 1ST DAY OF BASIC FIRE FIGHTING, INSTRUCTOR KEVIN NEUGENT: HE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL, KNOWLEDGEABLE AND HUMBLE AT THE SAME TIME. KEVIN HAD A GREAT ATTITUDE AT ALL TIMES, ALWAYS WITH A SMILE AND PASSIONATE ABOUT THE SUBJECT TAUGHT. FLAWLESS PRESENTATION! ALSO THE FRONT OFFICE STAFF WAS VERY FRIENDLY AND WILLING TO HELP ME ON PERSONAL NEEDS. THANK THEM, I WAS ABLE TO GET PAPERWORK DONE ON TIME AND AVOID LOOSING MY SHIP ASSIGNEMENT.M SOMETIMES LITTLE THINGS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE! THEY WERE PATIENT AND HELPFUL AND THAT EXTENDS TO EVERY SINGLE STUDENT. (SOL FARINELLI/ ARGENTINIAN/ INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR FOR PPI GROUP)
