Interested in Being an Instructor?

The NW Maritime Apprenticeship welcomes participation from industry experts as we seek to enhance and expand this Marine Service Technician training program.  

Instructor Training is available! We realize that while you are an expert in your trade, actually teaching your area of expertise may be a new venture. The hands-on train-the-trainer workshops help you gain comfort in successfully teaching your craft.

Sponsors

We gratefully acknowledge financial and programmatic support from many partners.
The Northwest Maritime Apprenticeship is thankful for all support as we work
together to train professional Marine Service Technicians.
