YM Theory was my second course with Ardent Training. Their teaching is the best online teaching ever! There are professional, real people behind the feedbackand during the course you get to know them. Practical approach and stories add up to solid theory and I got their support in minutes even if you live on the other side of Europe. I feel much more confident in my sailing after passing the course. Thank you so much! All the best! Outi

Very nice on-line platform for home studying. Very user friendly. The Chat Box function with real people on the other side is very nice too! I was able to learn a lot in a very short period of time, because the lessons are very well organised! Thank you and well done!

The instructors were very responsive and got back quickly at all times to my questions so that it felt like a live classroom. The curriculum was very thorough, well structured and flowed well. The quality of the instruction and the videos and interactive slides all worked very well. I was particularly impressed with the MOB drills and jumping in the lifeboat. This was a great course and I learned a great deal and enjoyed it as well.

This course is super well-structured and covers everything you need to know. The instructors are really friendly and they’re quick to respond to questions. I highly recommend it!

A very well put together program. Fast professional response when needed. A great way to learn in your own time.

Most comprehensive and advanced course I ever did in an online environment.
Staff is always ready for support. By mail, by phone and by chats in the digital classroom.
Very cool to receive inventations for additional online meetings on random topics.

The presentation of the material by both video and slides works very well. It really does feel like personal tuition and all interactions whether they be questions on the subject matter or help with the Knowledge tests are quick, friendly and engaging.
Originally I hesitated at the extra cost compared to others but the recommendation persuaded me and I am so glad I did. It has been worth every penny.

Ardent Training provides an exceptionally well-organized and comprehensive review of RYA examination preparations. To top it off, the lessons are quite enjoyable as well!

I have just completed and passed my Day Skipper course with Ardent Training. I found the online course well paced, great blend of video, sketches and text. Great bite sized modules. Enjoyed all the presenters esp liked seeing them on board and being very authentic. I felt encouraged and supported throughout the course. And I feel confident to now put it into practice when I take some hands on sailing instruction in Greece later this year. How good!! Thank you Ardent Training.

Can't recommend Ardent Training enough for Day Skipper Theory.

The teaching is all provided using original video content, which has been professionally created by a group of people who are clearly passionate about what they do.

The course was slightly more expensive than some alternative options, but the enjoyable nature of the teaching, support & an excellent online portal more than offset the price.

Utterly brilliant. I have completed lots of distance learning in my time but this really has really been the best. The team are real, passionate, professional and supportive.

Fabulous resources and the support they describe is absolutely there for you. It has been a joy to work through the Day Skipper modules - right on to the exam next.

Passed my Day Skipper Theory this week (Feb 2026) with Ardent Training. Fantastic course, so much support available every day. The videos/text/graphics are clear and explanatory. Instructors available very quickly via chat function for anything you don't understand. As someone who hates maths/calculations I was stressed about doing the course as thought I wouldn't manage the exams, but Ardent really are excellent. If you're in doubt, don't be, just go for it!

Great company and very good instructors for RYA Day Skipper Theory Course.
Not cheap but really good value for money.

Great online training package from a great team.

I had a great experience with Ardent Training’s Day Skipper course. The content was very practical and relevant, and I learned a lot of real-world skills I can actually use. The instructors were professional, supportive, and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand—even for non-native English speakers. Thank you!

I'm 70% of the way through my day skippers course. Great quality physical materials. Clear lessons that break problems down with regular knowledge checks and module assessments. Detailed feedback on my chart work. Well worth the money.

Firstly what a fabulous group of friendly helpful trainers. Needing to do an online course due to work commitments Ardent came recommended by my local sailing school and they were so right to recommend them. The online classroom appears to operate seamlessly with the trainers very supportive and always on hand to help out when needed.
So glad I went with Ardent Training.

The video lessons, personal experience and examples are very helpful. Mixing it up with multiple instructors is nice. Teaching the day skipper as if little previous experience or knowledge, for me, is a plus.

Ardent training produce amazing online training for RYA courses. I have now completed Day Skipper and Yachtmaster with Ardent Training. The interactive videos are great, you can switch between in person and a presentation format. Knowledge quizs which help to check your understanding and modules at the send of each section. Plus mock exam, to see where extra revision may be required.
In addition their online support is great, questions through the chat are always answer within a couple of minutes, with detailed responses by one the experts at Ardent Training.
They enabled me to pass my exams with confidence and have given me a solid grounding in all of the techniques.
Finally, they provided excellent templates that help you calculate tidal heights, and most important plan passages.
Thank you again for being amazing and making the learning fun and informative.

Absolutely brilliant. The help and support is incredible. These guys are so positive and encouraging and are passionate about sailing they want you to succeed. Thank you
