This course is tailored for professionals and enthusiasts looking to gain a comprehensive understanding of the shipping business and financing options. It covers essential topics ranging from the fundamentals of the maritime industry to in-depth discussions on financing structures and securitization in the shipping industry.

The course provides an overview of shipping practices. At the end of the course, the participants would be able to understand the roles of shipping in international trade, learn how customers evaluate and select shipping lines for their shipping requirements, and acquire knowledge on shipping line operations. Also, participants would understand the duties, rights and liabilities of a carriers, be aware of the importance and application of IT, know the financial considerations of operating shipping services and appreciate the roles and future challenges of shipping carriers in supply chain management.

This course equips participants with the technical expertise to assess and implement hybrid hydrogen fuel cell–electric propulsion systems in line with evolving regulations. Participants will compare 20‑year total cost of ownership (TCO) across hybrid, pure hydrogen, and diesel systems, evaluate real‑world ROI (including fossil fuel penalties), and optimise system integration. Through case studies, such as Norled’s MF Hydra, HySeas III, and Singapore’s zero‑emission ferry concepts, participants will also learn to navigate funding mechanisms and incentives for retrofits.

This course covers general contract principles, time & voyage charter, bills of lading, marine casualties, collisions, salvage & wreck removal, general average, limitation and forum non conveniens and insurance.

“This course offers a clear overview of the end‑to‑end supply chain for low‑carbon marine fuels, from feedstock origin to onboard combustion. Participants will examine Well‑to‑Wake (WtW) versus Tank‑to‑Wake (TtW) emissions accounting and their regulatory implications, evaluate the scalability and infrastructure needs of key fuels such as biofuels, methanol, ammonia, and hydrogen, and explore real‑world case studies from ASEAN and China. The course also highlights the role of carbon capture, emerging investment trends, future supply hotspots (2025–2035), and what makes a marine fuel future‑proof.”

This course is aimed to familiarise participants with the basic requirements of the Singapore Bunkering Standard SS600 & SS648 and the general knowledge of bunkering operations in Singapore. This course is also a compulsory course or Bunker Cargo Officers & Bunker Surveyors to attend.

This course equips participants to identify future skills gaps across shipboard and shore‑based roles and link them to effective recruitment, development, and workforce planning strategies. Using practical frameworks, participants assess social intelligence, gender sensitivity, teamwork capability, and green shipping competencies for hiring and internal mobility. Through case studies and scenario‑based exercises, the course also addresses upskilling and reskilling solutions, leadership development, and the transferability of seafarer skills to shore‑based roles.

This course aims to provide participants with a clear understanding of the science and technology behind nuclear propulsion, including both nuclear fission and the emerging potential of it. It examines how nuclear propulsion can revolutionise the maritime industry by reducing carbon emissions, improving energy efficiency, and supporting global sustainability goals. This course will analyse the technical, operational, and safety challenges associated with nuclear powered vessels, including regulatory hurdles, public perception, and environmental concerns.

This course is designed to provide a foundational understanding of open-source large language models (LLMs) and their practical applications in the maritime industry. It is tailored for computer-literate professionals who are interested in supporting their teams with data-driven insights. This course will equip participants with the skills to leverage AI as an assistant that complements and enhances human expertise.
