Our Program Benefits

If you’re interested in starting your career in the marine industry…

The Marine Trades Institute can help you jump-start that career! With two 12-month programs that focus specifically on the marine trades, you can develop your skills to become anything from a marine carpenter or custom boat builder to a marine mechanic or technician. 

Students at Marine Trades Institute generally spend over 80% of their time working hands-on in a shop-like setting or on the water. With an innovative, holistic approach to training, each program focuses on both technical skill training and “soft” skill training, helping graduates to be ready when they enter the workforce.

Amazing Alumni

The ratio of classroom instruction to hands-on learning really struck a perfect balance. We spent enough time focusing on the specifics, both in lecture and in preparation for certification exams, that we finished the year with a solid understanding of a whole host of topics. But, we didn't just keep it at the level of theory. Most things discussed in class, we were able to experience (and experiment with) in the shop. That's an important thing
