There are no shortcuts to excellence.
Compromised standards, unverified training, and non-compliant practices can impact careers, safety, and future opportunities.
Choose training that is built on recognized standards, quality education, and approved institutions.
Because excellence begins long before the voyage.
Learn Right. Sail Right.

The first commercial telephone line (available beyond government offices when Western Cameroon was still with Nigeria), was established in 1912-23 between Itu and Calabar in present-day Akwa Ibom and Cross River States.
The clock is ticking…
From 1 July 2026, the IMO’s new International Code for Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS Code) becomes effective.
It’s still non-mandatory at this stage, but it sets the global benchmark for ships operating with remote control or autonomous functions.
Key questions the industry must answer in the next 2–3 years:
1. How will this change minimum safe manning and training requirements?
2. What does it mean for Indian officers and ratings, new skills or new roles?
3. Will we see more hybrid crewing models before full autonomy?
The future of crewing is being shaped right now. Are we actually ready?
Following intensive talks, we are pleased to announce that the Peace Deal between the United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran has been REACHED. Both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon.
The official signing ceremony will be on Friday, 19 June in Switzerland.
We would like to thank the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran for their commitment to finding a diplomatic solution to the conflict. We would also like to extend our sincere appreciation to our brothers in this mediation effort, the great leadership of State of Qatar, for their support in reaching this agreement. I would also especially thank the visionary leadership of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and Republic of Türkiye for their immense contributions in this regard.
With the agreement now in place, mediators will facilitate a series of meetings this week. These pre-implementation discussions will lay the foundation for the technical talks and the official signing ceremony.

BREAKING: President Trump says the U.S.-Iran peace deal is now complete, with the Strait of Hormuz set to reopen and the U.S. naval blockade lifted.
If fully implemented, this could ease tensions, stabilize energy markets, and reduce the risk of further conflict.
