Mars Mining Academy
Mars Mining optimizes you for your career before you even apply. The Academy is where that happens: one short course for each crew department, built around the work those jobs actually involve.
Each track is a handful of 15-minute modules with a quiz after each one, then a final test. Pass it and you get a certificate with its own public page, so an employer can check it. The lessons are for crew members, and joining is free. This page shows what's in every track before you sign up.
