About Us
The ships today are highly sophisticated and hence require a highly
skilled man power. Unfortunately, the seafarer training world wide has been
rather disorganized and of poor quality. To some extent, this has improved with
the advent of STCW 95.
This academy came into existence in 1998 as a
non-governmental, welfare project of the Western Naval Command of Indian Navy.
Hence we conduct the training commensurate with the high standards of training
in Indian Navy. It is because of this attribute of assured high quality of
training that we have been engaged by reputed organizations/companies such as
Indian Navy, Indian Coast Guard, Director General of Resettlement (Ministry of
Defence), Indian Customs, Directorate General of Hydrocarbons (Ministry of
Petroleum), Oil and Natural Gas Commission, MAERSK Offshore Dubai, Tanker
Pacific and P & O Cruises and many others to train their employees. We have been
awarded ISO 9001:2000 Certification by 'American Bureau of Shipping' and our
STCW - 95 courses are approved by the Director General of Shipping, Ministry of
Surface Transport, Govt. of India. Till date we have already trained more than
30,000 seafarers.
The academy's infrastructure includes air-conditioned classrooms fitted with
sophisticated training aids like Simulators, Fire Fighting and Tanker Mockups,
Fast rescue boats & Ship Models.
We have also pioneered the offshore safety training in India. The
training includes Helicopter Underwater Escape Training (HUET). The Academy has
a highly qualified and experienced faculty of 35 Master Mariners, Chief
Engineers and Instructors. In addition, there is an administrative staff of 10
personnel. Consultancy in designing and conduct of STCW and other marine related
