At FLEET, we are committed to supporting and investing in the development of our people. As a leading ship manager, we have a responsibility to provide our valued seafarers with opportunities to learn, develop their knowledge base and skill set and build successful careers.

As a seafarer who is curious, collaborative and a continuous learner, you’ll have limitless opportunities to make an impact and thrive, all while becoming your personal best and being recognised for it.

Fleet Management Training Institute (FMTI)

FMTI is a maritime training centre certified by the Directorate General of Shipping (DGS) of the Government of India and DNV, the world’s leading classification society and a recognised advisor to the maritime industry.

We offer a range of training programmes to ensure our crew has the knowledge and skills to uphold safety standards, ensure regulatory compliance and improve the commercial and operational efficiency of ships.

From remote assistance to cloud-based simulators, we utilise digital technology
to effectively deliver training without boundaries

Training curriculum

We offer a curriculum that covers a wide range of subjects and topics either in-person at our Institute or entirely virtually through our robust digital training platform.

We aim to create an experience for seafarers that is informative and engaging and promotes a healthy exchange of dialogue and interaction.

Our curriculum is built on the strength of our faculty, who has developed course materials that comply with applicable IMO model courses and other mandatory requirements set by the relevant approval authorities. All value-added courses are developed in accordance with applicable DNV standards.

ECDIS

The ECDIS support cell is a dedicated team within FMTI that provides technical assistance to our bridge teams who may have issues related to ECDIS, ENCs or similar navigational processes. It also provides guidance to crew for PSC and vetting inspections and oversees the ‘management of change’ for dual ECDIS vessels or during new ECDIS installation onboard.

To teams onshore, it provides support in drafting policies, analysis of vetting findings and incident investigation.

From time to time, the ECDIS support cell provides insights to key policymakers and industry stakeholders from UKHO, IHO and INTERTANKO to ECDIS manufacturers and ENC suppliers.
