Welcome to the Professional Development Programme in Maritime Welfare (MARI-WEL)
The World Maritime University and the ITF Seafarers’ Trust put together the world-leading experts in the field of seafarer rights, maritime regulations, and welfare issues, to design the first comprehensive programme concerning topics and issues that relate to seafarer welfare. MARI-WEL has been designed to meet the needs of anyone who works with or interacts with seafarers, both onboard and on shore.
As an open-access continuing education programme offered through e-learning, registered participants can access all programme materials at any time including video lectures, self-study activities and self-assessment tools. The programme provides three modules:
- Module 1: International regulations, conventions, codes, and seafarers’ rights
- Module 2: Psycho-social and occupational health relating to seafarers
- Module 3: Crew & resource management and land-based seafarer welfare
Open-access Enrollment for the full MARI-WEL programme is available from June 25 2021. For a fee of 100USD, an online examination is available to receive a Certificate of Completion for the Professional Development Programme in Maritime Welfare, issued by the World Maritime University.
