STCW Training in Kenya: 2026 Easter Offers & Course Costs at PIU

Are you dreaming of traveling the world while earning a competitive salary? Whether you’re an aspiring cruise ship chef, a marine engineer, or a hospitality professional looking for a career change, your journey starts with one acronym: STCW.

This Easter, Pioneer International University (PIU) is making it easier than ever to get your "Passport to the Seas" with exclusive, limited-time discounts at our STCW Training Centre.

Why STCW Training is Non-Negotiable

STCW (Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping) is a mandatory global requirement for anyone working on a ship. Without these certifications, you cannot apply for a Kenyan Seaman’s Book (CDC) or be hired by international lines like Royal Caribbean, MSC, or Carnival Cruises.

🐣 The 2026 Easter Offer Breakdown

We’ve slashed prices across our most popular maritime modules to help you get certified for less:

1. The "Global Entry" Basic Safety Training (BST)

Price: Kshs 25,000 (Special Easter Rate) This is the foundational course for all new seafarers.

Duration: 

  • 7 Days

Modules Included: 

  • Fire Prevention and Fire Fighting (FPFF)
  • Elementary First Aid (EFA)
  • Personal Safety & Social Responsibility (PSSR)
  • Security Awareness Training (SAT)
  • Personal Survival Techniques (PST)

2. The "Cruise-Ready" Ultimate Bundle

Price: Kshs 37,500 Designed for those aiming for high-end passenger ships. This bundle combines the BST with specialized training in Crowd and Crisis Management.

3. The Seafarer’s Renewal & Revalidation

Price: Kshs 17,500 Are you an active seafarer who trained in 2021/22? Your certificates are likely nearing expiry. Our renewal package ensures you stay compliant with the latest IMO MSC .560 (108) resolutions, including the new mandatory module on Anti-Bullying & Anti-Harassment.

Admission Requirements: Are You Ready?

To take advantage of these offers at our PIU Murang’a Campus, ensure you have:

  • Medical Clearance: Must be from a KMA-approved doctor.
  • Identification: A copy of your National ID or Passport.
  • Photos: 4 Passport-size photos on a white background.
  • Academic Papers: Copies of your professional or academic certificates.
The PIU Edge: We facilitate the KMA certification process at no additional cost, so you can focus on your training while we handle the paperwork.
