With an average age of 27, our staff members are young, dynamic teachers who live aboard with our shipmates 24/7. Most of our core operational staff work full-time as educators with Sea|mester, our college-level marine science program. Others are traditional teachers during the year, joining us each summer to raise our staff to over 50.

Each team member brings unique talents and experience and most have been with us for several years. In fact, 75 percent of our staff return each summer and 56 percent were once shipmates themselves, so they understand the dynamics of an AQ adventure from both teen and adult perspectives. The background and qualifications of our professional staff are as diverse as the activities on an AQ adventure. Still, the AQ staff is united by their love of teaching, their steadfast integrity and their boundless dedication to their shipmates.

Every team member possesses the essential abilities for their particular area of expertise, yet most are multi-talented, combining the many skills necessary to operate a mobile live-aboard training program. Team members include U.S. Coast Guard licensed captains, IYT/RYA Yachtmasters, PADI scuba instructors, marine scientists, Emergency Medical Technicians, Paramedics and other water sport instructors. All staff members are trained first aid responders. New staff applicants are carefully screened to ensure they posses the required qualifications, experience and the ability to be a positive role model for our shipmates. During pre-summer, staff complete an intensive training program in the British Virgin Islands. Safety procedures, risk management, equipment maintenance and operation, itinerary planning as well as instruction in teambuilding and communication facilitation are just a few of the modules covered.
