Minimizing ALL Academy’s ecological footprint

By ALL Academy No Comments

ALL Academy is concerned about its ecological footprint. Even if this footprint is small compared to most larger companies and manufacturing industries, steps taken in the right direction by small companies and individuals will eventually have a huge impact. A deep concern for the environment is a natural part of ALL Academy’s company culture and goes hand in hand with our objective to help clients establish organizations where safety, efficiency and job satisfaction are key priorities.

To further improve our environmental policies and procedures, ALL Academy took part in a project initiated by Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg and “Miljöbron”. “Miljöbron”, or “the environmental bridge”, serves as a link between companies and university students and aims at contributing to a sustainable development.

Four Chalmers students attending the Maritime Environment and Environmental Management programme made during autumn 2014 an environmental review of ALL Academy. Their findings and recommendations were presented at Chalmers University of Technology on 23 October 2014. We are most grateful to the students for a job well done.

Third time in one year with Wallenius Marine in Manila

By Maritime Resource Management (MRM), Seminars/Conferences No Comments

Some of the most enjoyable events are the meetings with seafarers and shore-side staff at crew conferences. It has been a privilege for ALL Academy to embark upon an MRM project with Wallenius Marine in Stockholm and Singapore where the focus so far has been on introducing the MRM concept to their seafarers. In less than a year, this has been done three times in connection with officer conferences in Manila. The third such event was held at the Makati Shangri-La Hotel and a full day, 8 October 2014, was dedicated to MRM. The day ended with a case study analyzed from an MRM perspective. A selection of photos from the event are shown below.
