 Apprentice Program

     These next few paragraphs are an introduction to the "Apprentice" study course

and should answer many of your questions. If you have other questions or would

like to discuss your concerns, please give us a call.

1. How do I get started?

Getting started is probably the easiest step.  Complete and submit the "ON LINE"

application, place a call to Jim Cross regarding your qualifications and Marine

experience. Visit Rhode Island for a final interview with staff before acceptance

 into the program.

2. How is the Apprentice Program  structured?

     The Apprentice Program is one month program of intense (in the field, hands on)

study and practice. An experienced mariner, who is interested in the Marine

Surveyor career, can begin with us at a higher level and progress to

become a knowledgeable Marine Surveyor.

3. What preliminary training or experience do I need to take the course?

     Any and all marine related experience and study is an asset,  but is not essential, 

as the course is comprehensive and will start with the basics and continue on from there.

The Apprentice Program is tailored to meet the individuals needs.
