The Seafarers Program is a scheme that targets the issue of youth unemployment in Nigeria by providing quality maritime training, sea-time experience and globally recognized certifications. Through this intervention, the Foundation aims to build a skilled high-earning workforce poised to support the growing in-country marine infrastructure and investments, while contributing to the global seafarer’s supply — currently experiencing a NET shortage.
The program aims to build well-trained and culturally diverse Nigerian seafarers through effective partnerships that will foster training in maritime academies, provide sea-time experience, and acquire a Certificate of Competency (CoC).
Maritime Training: Tetra Foundation will partner with Maritime Training Institutes in India to provide our selected candidates with training in Nautical Science and Marine Engineering.
Sea-time experience: The Foundation would also partner with ship owners and ship managers to provide berths on ocean-going vessels as required for their Certificate of Competency (CoC).
Certificate of Competency: Through a structured post-sea preparatory class with approved maritime academies, Tetra Foundation will prepare selected candidates for their Certificate of Competency (CoC) examination.
