The International Maritime Employers’ Council
(IMEC)
IMEC offers a cadet-training program that nurtures young Filipinos’ dream to become world-
class ship officers.
According to its official website, over 600 cadets had successfully completed, with 480 more
currently engaged on its Enhanced Cadet Training Program.
IMEC’s cadet-scholars enjoy free tuition, food and accommodation, uniform and first class
trainings, among other perks, courtesy of the institution’s shipping company member –
sponsors.
Not to mention that they are being honed in none other school but the Maritime Academy of
Asia and the Pacific (MAAP), a top-notch maritime institution of higher learning in the country.
Like the NSA Cadet Program, the scholars have to complete a 2-1-1 maritime education
scheme.
Their first two years are spent in school while their third year is for actual apprenticeship – the
time they learn how to live, toil and survive the challenging life at sea.
Finally, they return back to MAAP to complete their college degree on their fourth year.
