The Leaders in Maritime Training and Simulation™
Über uns
MITAGS is a world-renowned maritime training and simulation center with locations in Baltimore and Seattle. We've been providing high-quality maritime training programs for military and commercial mariners for well over thirty years. Today, over one hundred and fifty different courses are available for mariners from around the globe. In addition, MITAGS is one of the few schools in the United States that offers all of the STCW training courses that are necessary to progress from Ordinary Seafarer to Unlimited Master. The origin of MITAGS can be traced back to the establishment of the Maritime Advancement, Training, Education, and Safety (MATES) Program. The MATES Program is a non-profit Trust that was created in 1968 by major Steamship Lines and the International Organization of Masters, Mates and Pilots (IOMM&P). The original mission of the MATES Program ("to enhance the professionalism of mariners") continues to this day.

Spending the day at MITAGS with colleagues of mine, interviewing candidates for the MITAGS/WSF Maritime Apprenticeship Scholarship Opportunity. Working for an employer like Washington State Department of Transportation Washington State Ferries who ensures they move barriers and open doors for those underserved makes me SO proud 🤩 Thanks to partnerships with organizations like MITAGS, I rest easy knowing my loved ones can have opportunities like this someday too! Special thanks to Dakota Pedersen for leading the way with this program and inviting me to participate.
