The Royal Australian Navy has developed the Navy Mastery Model to shape the process of learning for future mariners, enabling them to achieve competency and to fight and win at sea. CAE is privileged to be contributing to Maritime, Social, and Technical Mastery through the delivery of the Platforms and Systems Training Contract. Together with our team of partners, we are empowering the next generation of mariners through professional training supported by a vision to increase agility and efficiency.”
