OUR HISTORY

Charkin Maritime Academy, Port Harcourt, (popularly called the “Academy”) was
established in June 2016 by Sir (Dr) Charles K. Wami. The idea and urge to
establish the Academy came as a result of his burning desire to assist in
developing manpower for the Nigerian maritime industry,to stem the acute
manpower shortage that has plagued it since the demise of the Nigerian National
Shipping Lines Limited. At the same time the Founder wanted an Institution that
will contribute in bridging the gap of unmet demands for admission in higher
institutions in Nigeria, especially in the maritime education and training
Sector.

The Campus where the Charkin Maritime Academy is located belongs to the Charkin
Maritime and Offshore Safety Centre (CMOSC) also owned and operated by Sir (Dr)
Charles Wami. Accordingly at inception, the Academy inherited some of the
facilities and staff of the CMOSC. She has since expanded her frontiers by
building additional facilities of her own, including the Marine engineering
laboratories and workshops Complex; 200 - bed capacity Cadets’ hostel;
Seamanship workshop; Meteorology and navigational aids laboratory; modern
Library incorporating an e - library section and modern classrooms equipped with
PowerPoint projectors, to name but a few., The Academy has in a short time
developed into a citadel of learning, where world - class maritime education and
training has been brought to the learner’s doorstep.

She is located in Latitude 4° 53´.2 and Longitude 6° 55´.1 on 5.1 hectares of
land in Ozuoba village of Obio / Akpor Local Government Area, about four
kilometres from Port Harcourt city centre in Rivers State. She runs two academic
programmes presently, namely: National Diploma in Nautical Science and National
Diploma in Marine Engineering. In addition the Academy also runs professional
Certificate of Competency (CoC) programmes, which are: Officer in Charge of a
Navigational Watch (OOW) NCV and Unlimited and Officer in Charge of an
Engineering Watch (OOW) NCV and Unlimited. The institution is easily accessible
by road and by air from any part of Nigeria and only about 15 minutes’ drive
from Port Harcourt international Airport.

Although a new and fledging maritime institution, the Academy has already become
popular, as nothing is spared in providing quality and competitive maritime
education and training to our merchant - navy cadets and maritime industry
practitioners. Perhaps, one of the greatest strives she has recorded is her
collaboration with a European shipping company to provide ship - berths for our
Cadets on completion of their National Diploma programmes, to eliminate any
interruption in their merchant navy career. Furthermore our Cadets have the
singular opportunity of being given automatic employment by the European
shipping company that is supporting our training efforts.

OUR VISION

CMA PARTNERSHIP

Charkin Maritime Academy is partnering with Bernhard Shulte Ship
Management (BSM) of Europe to place 60 CMA cadets on board foreign ships going
every year for the mandatory 12 months sea service, and to give automatic
employment to those that will do well. Since the demise of the Nigerian National
Shipping Lines Ltd it has not been heard that any Maritime institution is able
to provide shipping berths for her cadets to carry out the mandatory seatime.
This feat makes it possible for Charkin Maritime Academy Cadets to continue
their training without break, as a result of lack of ship berth
for the sea - time after their two year National Diploma programmes.




OUR
PHILOSOPHY

Charkin Maritime Academy emphasizes both academic and professional attainment as
well as character development, that is, students are encouraged to seek honour
as well as achievement.  The Academy has an open and non - tribal admission
policy and is focused on educational excellence and achievement of equity among
the various populations served.  The programmes are intended to impart both
theoretical knowledge and practical skills to students in their relevant fields
to provide a strong foundation for them to build their career at sea and work in
any modern, sophisticated organization within the global marine transportation
and offshore industry.

LIFE ON CAMPUS

  


SOCIAL LIFE

To cater for total human development, the cadets training in regimentation and
academics are spiced with social, cultural and religious activities.  The Cadets
Smoke room and Welfare shop provide facilities where cadets can unwind, play
indoor games, watch television, organize and hold social and cultural events,
among others.  The cadets take part in a swimming exercise as much as possible
every Saturday as part of their extra - curricula activities. The Social life on
campus is not limited to the cadets and the students alone, the staff and the
entire Academy community are united as one big family within the Charkin Centre
where the institution’s campus is located. The “Happy Hour” also provides an
avenue for both staff, cadets and students to meet, interact and exchange ideas
from time to time.


RELIGIOUS LIFE

In the Charkin Maritime Academy Campus there are places of worship for the
adherents of the two dominant religious communities.  These are Christians and
Muslims, who co - exist peacefully in the Academy.  The Christian and Muslim
religious communities have been of immense benefit to the Charkin Maritime
Academy: their inspirational teachings have instilled great moral and spiritual
values on cadets, students, staff and the Charkin community in general.  They
play important roles during the Passing - Out - Parade (P. O. P.); according to
Academy’s Academic Calendar, Special Jumat and Christian religious services are
always held in the week preceding the P. O. P. programme.  On this occasion
religious personalities are invited to the school to offer inspirational
teachings and prayers.  All these activities go a long way in making the Academy
and the Charkin Centre a place to be.  They help in reducing stress amongst
staff, cadets and students and also enhance unity and progress in the entire
Charkin Centre.


MEDICALS

The Academy uses the Charkin Maritime and Offshore Safety Centre medical
facilities comprising a Sick Bay on Campus and retainer hospitals for serious
medical cases. The Sick Bay is manned by three registered Nigerian Nurses who
are able to handle all minor and emergency cases before referring them to the
retainer hospitals where necessary. The Sick Bay is well equipped with drugs
purchased with a revolving loan provided by the Centre’s Management.  Cadets are
treated free of charge for all ailments up to a certain fixed amount.


CADET'S AFFAIRS UNIT

The Cadets’ Affairs Unit is under the charge of an Assistant Registrar who
reports to the Registrar of the Academy. The Unit handles all matters concerning
the cadets, including registration, scholarship, transcripts, documentation,
grants, insurance, guidance and counselling and academic welfare.  It works in
liaison with the Regimental Unit to maintain cadets discipline, general welfare
and health; and with the SIWES Department to ensure that the cadets SIWES is
always successfully executed.
