Your path to getting ahead

The reduction in operational maritime staff has also cut back the natural recruitment of experienced mariners into the ship agency profession.

Therefore the need for a deeper knowledge of shipping operations and how it integrates with modern communication technology is more important than ever for anyone wishing to make a career in ship agency.

This Diploma for the Ship Agent provides the vital knowledge you need in an informative, flexible format.
