If there is something that Ana Casaca likes is work diversity; the routine work kills her creativity. For this reason, besides being a lecturer and trainer, she worked in the industry and has always delivered consultancy services. Maritime transport is a very peculiar area, and in that sense, she believes that to be a good maritime lecturer and trainer, he/she must have worked in the industry. Otherwise, maritime lecturers and trainers lack what happens in reality, particularly on board vessels’ operations. For her, this is the way to establish the bridge between academia and industry. |
