7 Solid Reasons Why You Should Join CMMI

What’s in it for ME? – is the usual question I get when I ask nautical officers to join The Company of Master Mariners of India (CMMI).
My answer: PLENTY!
Here’s 7 solid benefits of joining CMMI, previously a professional association of master mariners, but now of ALL certified nautical officers*.
1. Networking Opportunities: Professional associations are great for meeting industry peers and industry stalwarts, sharing experiences, and making contacts that can lead to mutual support and potentially career opportunities.
2. Continuing Education: CMMI provides for continual learning, including seminars, webinars, and workshops that keep members abreast of the latest industry standards and innovations. (Members get a discount on entry fees)
3. Information Resource: Membership of CMMI means access to a wealth of information through exclusive publications, reports, and databases that can provide valuable insights and data relevant to the maritime industry.
4. Advocacy and Influence: Professional bodies such as CMMI lobby for legislation, rules and regulations that benefit the industry and its workers, giving members a collective voice that can impact important decisions.
5. Professional Recognition: Associations like The Company of Master Mariners of India frequently recognize and award individual achievements and contributions to the sector, thus providing members with professional esteem among their peers.
6. Career Development: CMMI provides career advice and mentoring programs specifically tailored to master mariners and nautical officers, which can be instrumental in your career progression.
7. Distinctiveness & Pride: Membership of CMMI lends you immense pride and a sense of distinctiveness within the merchant marine as well as within your social milieu.
Besides serving as a path to GIVE BACK to the industry that has given you a more-than-decent livelihood for most of your working life, joining CMMI adds a sense of belonging to a community with a common purpose, providing an avenue for personal and professional camaraderie and support.
Above all, an association like The Company of Master Mariners of India underlines a commitment to excellence and professionalism within & outside the maritime field.
We hope to welcome you to the CMMI fold soon.
