Located on Louisiana's north shore of Lake Pontchartrain, Northshore Technical Community College (NTCC) offers a Maritime Technology program that is designed to "provide students with foundational skills and competencies that will create and promote a sustainable employee base of individuals who are better prepared and trained for professional careers in the maritime industry." The two-year program offers a Certificate of Technical Studies in General Marine Transportation Technology, Technical Diploma in Maritime Technology or an Associate's Degree in Applied Science in Maritime Technology. "Our focus is to recruit high school graduates or military personnel who are transitioning to civilian life, but we also get a number of students who are in lower-paying jobs and want to make a better life for themselves and their families," said Capt. Randy Savoie, lead maritime instructor. "Our objective is to make our students very attractive to maritime employers." |
