“”Why Choose A Flourishing Career In The Maritime Industry!””

“Samundar ke lehron pe kabzaa kar liya toh karobaar ka jahaaz kabhi nahi doobega”

-Dialogue from the film ‘Once Upon a Time in Mumbai‘

Every trade or business that exists in society requires the use of land for gaining profit. From growing crops on agricultural land to manufacturing goods in a factory the obtaining of land is the first step of commerce. Land is where the money is…apparently. It is this statement that distinguishes the maritime industry from other industries.

Maritime industry involves all activities related to movement of people, goods, and cargo by sea, including container ships, oil tankers, cruise ships, passenger ferries, and fishing boats. For a country like India that is connected to other prosperous countries by sea, the maritime industry plays an important role in India’s economy.

A maritime career involves working in the maritime industry, which includes a wide range of roles related to ships, ports, and maritime operations. This can include jobs such as seafarers (deck officers, engineers, etc.), port operators, maritime lawyers, naval architects, and more.

Maritime careers often involve working at sea, managing ships, ensuring their safety, or working in port operations, logistics, or other related fields. These careers play a crucial role in global trade and transportation, making the maritime industry essential for the global economy.

Being a part of such a dynamic industry involves possession of a specialized set of skills to ensure safety and efficiency in handling of ships-skills ranging from First-Aid and Fire-fighting to specific skillsets for different types of ships. To make a career in the industry it is important to equip yourself with relevant skills and knowledge from the right mentors in order to thrive in this industry.

SCMS has been in the forefront for the past 5 years in mentoring seafarers across all ranks in making a successful career on ships with authentic and advanced training given to its candidates and help them obtain Certificate of Competency to rise in their careers at sea as Captains and Chief Engineer.
