Individual Courses

Program Overview

In addition to Vocational Programs, such as our AB to Mate, Chief Mate to Master, and Mate 500-1600 Tons programs, PMI continues to offer individual courses for mariners. Our individual courses are offered for those mariners wishing to either renew or upgrade their licenses. While some of these courses are offered within one or more of our programs, we still offer them on an individual basis and they are on the schedule regularly.
 

Individual Courses

The list below includes all courses PMI offers both individually and as part of a program. PMI encourages companies and individuals to call if there is a specialty course you are interested in. If you are looking for offsite training or development of a simulation course, please call 888-893-7829 for more details. You may click on the course name to go to its description page.
