NIMASA collaborates with Navy on training, accreditation - Vanguard News
The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency says  it will assist in the accreditation of professional courses offered by the Nigerian Navy.
The agency said it would also facilitate the attainment of International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for seafarers’ status for the Nigerian Navy’s training institutes.
Dr Bashir Jamoh, the Director General of NIMASA, Dr Bashir Jamoh, stated these on Tuesday in Lagos, when the Flag Officer Commanding Naval Training Command, Rear Admiral Kamarudeen Lawal, visited NIMASA’s headquarters.
His position was  in response to requests by Lawal, who said collaboration between the Nigerian Navy and NIMASA was not only required for success of the country’s maritime goals, but also inevitable.
According to Jamoh  “NIMASA is all for anything that will enhance safety and security in our waters and promote shipping. This is in line with our mandate. We will support and advance courses and causes geared towards maximising our maritime potential.
 “We would help the Nigerian Navy obtain the STCW status for its training bodies, and facilitate the accreditation of its programmes, on purpose to advance our common goal of maritime safety and security.”
