IMI is the realization of collective dreams. In 1991, 12 eminent professionals from the maritime fraternity determined to pool together resources, expertise, and long broad-based maritime experience to establish an institution in response to the worldwide shipping industry’s severe workforce shortage.
A training school for seagoing cadets was a long-felt need in the north of India, where 60-70% of the seafaring workforce hails, and IMI was born – a unique training institution geared to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow.
Today’s seafarer must hone his skills in an increasingly complex and commercial shipping environment. The IMO, ISO, ISM, and STCW regulations underline quality training and certification of sea personnel for safer ships. The advent of shipboard automation, electronics, and satellites has resulted in the demand for high-caliber personnel to crew modern ships – far outpacing supply. It makes the task of training institutions more exacting and precise.
IMI justifiably takes pride in its excellent reputation for quality training. Equipped with the latest shipboard working instrumentation, maritime teaching systems, and a marine workshop, the institute maintains a close liaison with the maritime industry. It is an effort to respond readily to the industry’s changing needs and demands by developing and upgrading courses constantly.
With the excellent infrastructure for training facilities backed by a committed Management and Staff and a serene ambiance that offers the most conducive learning environment for Merchant navy personnel, IMI is a leading marine institution – at par with the best in the world.
A career at sea is both arduous and rewarding. It offers a high level of job satisfaction, vast experience, and a challenging work environment. Experienced Mariners are in great demand in various shore assignments because of their ability to handle all types of jobs, resourcefulness, sense of responsibility, and ability to work under the most demanding circumstances.
“The International Maritime Institute continuously strives to be the premier national maritime training institute, committed to imparting Maritime Training and Education conforming to the standards laid down by the national and international regulatory bodies and continuously improve the quality management system thereby effectively meeting the needs of the Shipping Industry.”
Capt. S. Varshney
