Our Mission:-

Quality Maritime Training is our Motto. We are imparting quality maritime training with a mission to make India and Indian seafarers as the global hub of ship-management. Without quality maritime training, this is not at all possible. India is a hub for manning of seafarers and to keep the quality of Indian seafarers higher above the other nationalities like Chinese, East Europeans, and Filipinos, we need continuous upgradation of Indian seafarers to keep their benchmark higher above the rest. We provide quality training for seafarers to make them competent to run ships in safe manner.

Our Specialty:-

Keeping abreast with present day shipping scenario we keep on developing and adding and upgrading the courses that our seafarers and shipping companies may require time to time to tackle adverse situations 

• With the advent of  Gulf of Aden Piracy, Criminalization of  seafarers we have developed 1 day course for preparations while transiting Gulf of Aden, Somalia piracy area and  to make Indian seafarers equipped for any legal battle in case they get struck like M.T.

• Without training for ratings, a training institute will not be complete.
