#Jobs&Careers - Ireland has a proud maritime tradition and the National Maritime College is offering an opportunity to build on that at its Open Day, the annual event held in the College at Ringaskiddy in lower Cork Harbour. 

It will take place on Thursday, 8th November, when the College campus opens its doors to the public who can see the top, international state-of-the-art facilities which it has. They are a powerful statement of the importance of the maritime sector to this island nation and impressive to see.

This is a day when anyone interested in a career at sea can pursue the many options available in a wide, varied and challenging sector which offers huge opportunities.

Representatives from international shipping companies and maritime organisations will be present to meet and discuss available careers, providing information to visitors about jobs throughout the wide sphere of the maritime industry, both at sea and ashore.

There will be presentations for schools and their pupils on marine course opportunities at the NMCI.

The Open Day will run from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., with tours of training facilities at the college throughout the day and, in the Events Hall, the opportunity to visit international maritime companies and organisations.

Enquiries and group bookings please telephone: (021) 433 5607. E-mail: [email protected]

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven't put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full-time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.
