The European Conference on Maritime Education and Training is being hosted by the UniMET partnership. The partnership is involved in a EU funded project called UniMET (www.unimet.pro) to help harmonise Marine Education and Training across Europe by raising awareness and transferring the good practices of member states MET systems with the ultimate aim of improving the level of safety at sea worldwide.
A distinguished panel of international speakers will discuss best practices in Maritime Education and Training, focussing on the future opportunities to improve the quality and standards in MET institutions. The conference will seek ideas to improve the current situation and look at the issue from the view of different Maritime professionals, academics, policy makers and international organisations.
Topics being discussed at the UniMET conference will include:
- Best practices in MET in EU countries
- Enhancing standards in MET over and above the existing STCW
- Demonstrating the need for standards in Maritime English
- Enabling further mobility of seafarers across Europe and Worldwide
