Independent study. xplor is not affiliated with the Greek Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Insular Policy, the Hellenic Coast Guard / Port Authorities, ΑΑΔΕ or any marine park body, is not an approved sea-school (σχολή ταχυπλόων) or training centre, and awards no licence, title, certificate or permit. Only the Directorate of Seafarers' Education (ΔΕΚΝ), the flag state and the local Port Authority can rule on a particular certificate, endorsement or crew list, and nothing here counts towards Greek sea service, courses or examinations.
