Earn Your Merchant Mariner Credentials Now
Our Boot Camp program is designed and exists to produce fully credentialed and professionally trained mariners that are qualified to join any US Merchant Vessel at the entry level. The course content consists of two types of curricula. The first is Coast Guard approved courses required for entry level mariners sailing internationally or result in additional endorsements. The second type of curriculum is general training for mariner activities that will help the student transition from non-mariner to a successful career. While these blocks of instruction do not lead to Coast Guard endorsements, they give the graduate the knowledge and skills necessary to competently enter the mariner workforce.
Marine Bootcamp takes place in the classroom, firefighting fields, on vessels, and other remote locations.
The program is offered at our Norfolk, VA and Everett, WA locations.
