  "Finally
some good news on the waterfront and a timely
solution to Foss’ challenge of bringing
employees up the Hawsepipe and into the
wheelhouse. ” We look forward towatching graduates of PMI ’s program move up the ladder quickly to Mate." Norm Manly, Foss Maritime  ""The
need for qualified wheelhouse personnel for the
oil and gas industry is immense. The leadership
skills and training gained from PMI's 1600 mate
program will transform the future of this
industry. PMI has made a long-term partner with
us and every mariner with the desire to excel in
their career." Justin
Getzinger, Edison Chouest Offshore

"Since
the new licensing regulations took Effect in
2002, certification and training of licensed
deck officers has become the biggest crisis
facing the Towing Industry. The Mate of Towing
Program offered by PMI is an important resource
for Towing Companies. Prospective mariners now
have a clear, fast track approach to a career at
sea, and companies have a viable resource for
recruitment. Dunlap Towing Company will be
taking full advantage of this program to employ
future deck officers."
