Since our founding in 2005, Isthmus Training Institute (ITI) has issued over 500 certificate to seamen under the STCW Convention. As soon as we received our authorization from the Panama Maritime Authority, we have been contracted by two cruise line companies to conduct training onboard for their staff and crew. 

Our vision is to establish Regional Training Centers (RTC) worldwide to promote our services and be able to offer existing or new crewmembers and shipboard staff the opportunity to receive quality training and certification to be able to work onboard vessel. These RTC are staffed by professional seamen with years of experience in the maritime field and have had special training in order to fully comply with the Standards required by the STCW.

 

ITI has been constantly improving its scope of courses we have been approved by the Panama Maritime Authority to conduct all courses available under the STCW, from the Basic training to upgrade to Master license. This full scope of certification will assist seamen and shipping companies to maintain a highly qualified Officers, Seamen and staff serving on board their vessels.
