Short answer: If you pass and you're available, you should expect to work. While we can't make a legal guarantee, in practice we almost always schedule 5+ weeks for new graduates in their first Mediterranean season.
What this means for you
Historically, nearly all graduates who are available in June to August receive 5 or more weeks across Yacht Week and (when available) private charters.
Exact weeks depend on booking demand, your availability, paperwork and visa status, and performance.
How priority is decided
Guest satisfaction and teamwork (good reviews move you up the list)
Availability and flexibility on dates and destinations
Professionalism and documentation in order
Bottom line: Passing Academy opens the door, and in almost every normal season, we get you 5+ weeks as long as you're ready and available.
