Barter  International  Maritime Studies BIMS trains ratings and
Officers.  Their   courses   are   accredited   by  the  Thailand
Marine department and the Ministry of Education of Thailand.
The  certification  acquired  is  world  class in compliance with
the  requirements  of  the  International Maritime Organisation
as  well as the relevant sections of the Standards of Training,
Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW) for Seafarers, 1978,
as amended.

WERE YOU AWARE THAT…….
Sea   cargo  transportation   takes  99%  of  the  world  cargo
market  and  leaves  about  1%  only  (by  weight)  for  the air
transportation   industry.  The   recent   boom   in   the  global
economy  has  driven  the  sea  freight  market  high  and the
order  books  of most of the world’s shipyards are full through
the  next  5  years. There  are 70,000 ships plying across the
oceans,  and  numbers  are  expected  to  increase  very fast.
Each  ship  requires  a  Captain and three navigating officers.
With  the  growing demand for new ships, there is expected to
be  a   shortage  of  officers  globally. Our  course   leads  the
students  through  a  structured  training  program  preparing
them for their first professional career as Rating.
