STCW Courses in India – Basic and Advanced Training at Anvay Maritime Institute

Introduction

The Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW) courses are mandatory for every seafarer who wishes to join the merchant navy. These courses ensure safety, emergency preparedness, and professional competency on board ships. At Anvay Maritime Institute, Mumbai, we provide DG Shipping approved STCW courses covering both Basic and Advanced levels, designed for freshers as well as experienced seafarers who want to upgrade their skills.

 

What is STCW and Why is it Important?

The STCW Convention was introduced by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to standardize training and certification of seafarers worldwide. Without completing STCW courses, it is not possible to work on merchant navy vessels. These courses prepare candidates in essential areas like fire prevention, first aid, survival techniques, personal safety, and tanker operations.

Anvay Maritime Institute offers STCW training in Mumbai with a perfect blend of classroom teaching and practical drills, helping candidates gain confidence before stepping on board.
