About James Ford

I completed my cadetship at Warsash in 2011 and then sailed as 3rd Engineer for Carnival UK. My time at sea was spent on passenger ships QM2, Oriana and most recently Arcadia. I decided to leave the Merchant Navy just before going to college and completing my class 2. I spent a year working at a large manufacturing company as a multi skilled (mechanical & electrical) engineer before I joined Fleetwood Nautical Campus as an Engineering Lecturer. I have BEng (Hons) Marine Engineering and Management and am currently working towards my teaching qualification. Upon completion of my teaching qualification I plan to complete my Masters. At Fleetwood Nautical Campus I teach a wide variety of modules. Academically I specialise in engineering mechanics. I also teach EOOW orals prep lessons and IAMI prep lessons.
