In honor of National Maritime Day we’d like to take a moment to thank you for your commitment to the maritime industry!
Mariners power the world’s largest economy and strengthen our ties with trading partners around the world, all while supporting our military forces by shipping troops and supplies wherever they need to go. Not to mention, mariners help keep the public safe during excursions on ferries, cruise ships, etc.
Here at MITAGS, we are dedicated to enhancing the maritime industry through the development of internationally recognized programs dedicated to mariner professionalism and leadership, as well as maritime education, training and safety.
Your hard work and dedication has been especially crucial during this extraordinary time, and we commend all of you! So on this Maritime Day, we thank you and join you in celebrating one of our nation’s most important industries!
