The support of partner seaports from the Baltic to the Caspian Sea confirms new prospects for the development of Kherson State Maritime Academy

03.02.2022

Kherson State Maritime Academy is rightly considered one of the best maritime educational institutions in Europe and has a significant image far beyond its borders. Highly qualified teaching staff, one of the most state-of-the-art material and technical facilities to ensure quality training of professionals from many countries, modern simulators and progressive administration of the academy has made Kherson State Maritime Academy one of the flagships of effective international cooperation.

New challenges and initiatives of international partners, who are interested in training and advanced training of professionals at KSMA, have become sort of a catalyst for the initiative on obtaining the right of Kherson Maritime Alma Mater to open training in a new specialty: "Port and Transport Management".

Reaffirming their interest and supporting this decision on obtaining the right of Kherson State Maritime Academy to conduct training in "Port and Transport Management", defining it as an important step in development, which is topical nowadays, heads of Ukrainian seaports as well as the seaports of Klaipeda (Lithuania) and Gdynia (Poland) of the Baltic Sea, the modern seaport CeyportTekirdag (Turkey) of the Black Sea and the modern seaport Kuryk (Kazakhstan) of the Caspian Sea have sent their official letters of support to the Academy. Thus, the international team of partner ports has not only confirmed its partnership support for KSMA, indirectly noting the initiative to open training in this specialty as a joint one, but also stated that professionals trained in Kherson are welcome at the seaports from the Baltic coast to the eastern shores of the Caspian Sea.
