This will be provided by sponsorship of a shipping company. however, other maritime related industries may meet therequirements of the programme.To enhance the industry links, you will be offered free student membership through the Institute of Marine Engineers, Science and Technology (IMarEST) which will be promoted during induction with guidance to how this membership can be used to enhance the programme in specific areas.Further information can be found on the FNC website at https://fleetwoodnautical.blackpool.ac.uk/course/mh1he95
