Last month the Culinary department on board ms Amsterdam started a large scale initiative to train and certify their foodservice crewmembers in the Basic Sanitation course. The course was instructed by Culinary Operations Manager Bart Groeneveld who trained about 200 crewmembers over a period of four weeks.

On February 9th, 2008, Josephine van Gent along with Jur Snijder (4th Officer) and Tim Lodder (3rd Officer) attended Open Day at Ijmuiden Nautical School. With Snider and Lodder’s enthusiastic approach and eagerness to help with recruiting new
cadets, they signed on 25 new students, an open day record!
