Every month, the Academy staff works to compile the statistics about our recruiting and training for the fleet’s informational purposes. Let’s take a look at how we did as a fleet in January.

This first graph shows the number of applications that we have received each month this year. During the month of February, the fleet saw seven new applications. This equates to roughly one new application every four days. It is also two fewer new applications than we saw during the month of January.

The following chart shows how our new members found us, according to their application:

This final graph shows how many people graduated from the Academy during the month of February. We had seven Academy graduates in February. This number includes one applicant who applied at the end of January but whose training did not conclude until the beginning of March.

These new recruits are the lifeblood of our community. Without them, it becomes difficult to keep our ships fully crewed and even more difficult to grow the fleet. If you’d like to help us recruit more members and grow our fleet, you can join the Publicity Team using this form.
