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 August.
This first graph depicts the number of applications that the fleet has received each month this year. The month of August saw six applications, an increase from last month!
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 July. The fleet saw two graduates during the month, and another is still in training. This decreased the year’s graduate percentage slightly from 65% to 57%, and this percentage is still down from 71% in 2020. It is highly likely to shift further as we get deeper into 2021.
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.
