Mentoring Services
The Australian Maritime Mentoring Program is a collaborative effort involving key maritime organisations such as the Australasian Marine Pilots Institute, the Nautical Institute, the Company of Master Mariners of Australia, Offshore and Specialist Ships Australia, and the Pilbara Ports Authority.
This initiative aims to bridge the gap between newcomers to the maritime industry and seasoned professionals, offering guidance and support as they navigate career pathways and challenges.
We have purposely elected to have only one prerequisite to become a mentee and that is to be a member of one of the participating organisations – The Nautical Institute (member, associate member or student member), Company of Master Mariners of Australia, the Australasian Marine Pilots Institute (associate member), Offshore & Specialist Ships Australia, and Pilbara Ports Authority (employee or cadet).
Our program is completely free, all that we ask is for motivation and dedication from both parties.
Our Mentoring Program Seeks to:
- Assist, encourage, and support mentees in advancing through their careers to become competent and confident maritime professionals.
- Promote personal development and diversity within the maritime industry.
- Foster a vibrant maritime community in Australia.
- Encourage membership in participating organizations.
- Ensure ongoing engagement in the training and development of seafarers.
- Enhance the reputation of participating organizations.
