Tolani Maritime Institute
Training Ship Management Institute (TMI) offers a range of specialized maritime programs designed to comply with the STCW 1978 (as amended), which emphasizes the necessity for structured training for Merchant Marine Officers. TMI’s courses are approved by the Directorate General of Shipping (DG Shipping) and are delivered through Distance Learning Mode.
This innovative approach allows for a seamless integration of high-quality educational practices with practical training, enabling students to engage with their studies without the need for physical attendance.
