Ardmore Shipping Supports Next Generation of Seafarers

Ardmore Shipping plays its part in supporting the next generation of seafarers to take their place in Ireland’s distinguished maritime tradition through its participation in the Irish Cadet Training Programme, run by the National Maritime College of Ireland.

Ardmore Shipping has provided a number of berths on its vessels for Irish cadets in order to give them the hands-on experience that is such a vital part of their training.

“I am very grateful for the opportunity given to me to work with a company like Ardmore Shipping on an Irish owned vessel.

Ireland has a long tradition of seafaring and being an island nation it is very important that new companies like Ardmore Shipping set up in Ireland and give the opportunities to Irish cadets to learn and progress in their careers. I believe that Ardmore with their intended expansion fleet programme can give great opportunities to cadets coming from the National Maritime College of Ireland to learn in a safe and healthy environment.”
