摘要：	Mariners interested in earning a college degree, upgrading their skills or earning Coast Guard-approved certifications can do so with programs that fit their schedule and give credit for their work experience through West Kentucky Community & Technical College (WKCTC).Last year, the college, based in Pa-ducah, Ky, earned a U.S. Maritime Administration's (MarAd) designation as aCenter of Excellence for Domestic Maritime Workforce Training and Education. Only 27 institutions around the country received Center of Excellence designations in 2021, and WKCTC is the only one with a curriculum geared toward brown-water mariners on the nation's inland waterways, said Kevin O'Neill, WKCTC vice president of regional workforce training and economic development. He said it took four years of working with industry and government sources and refining the curriculum to obtain the designation.
