What you will be able to do
Every day, millions of tonnes of goods move through the world’s ports – and almost nobody outside the industry knows how. This course takes you inside one of the best ports on the planet to find out.
Your guide is Marcus Van der Elst, who has spent over fifteen years working in and around ports. Across six short lessons, Marcus shows you how a port actually works, who works in it, and the international rules that connect every port on Earth – including the ones closest to you. No prior knowledge needed: every term is explained, and every idea is tied to a real place, from Antwerp to Abidjan to Ho Chi Minh City.
Each lesson ends with a challenge. Every correct answer earns you XP – score 80% or more and you unlock that lesson’s badge. There are six badges to collect, a final knowledge check to pass, and at the end, the Certificate of Maritime Basics exam is waiting: an official AMLA credential you can share with employers.
