INLAND MARITIME PORT MANAGEMENT AND EXECUTIVE PROGRAM

WE ARE STILL ACCEPTING REGISTRATIONS FOR THE INLAND PROGRAM IN CATOOSA (Tulsa area), September 24 – 28, and hosted by Oakley’s Port 33.

The Inland Maritime Port Executive Seminar is an officially recognized IRPT Education Program. IRPT members receive a 10% discount on the cost of the seminar. The 36 hour full program can be taken in 2 segments. The management section is 16 hours (days 1 and 2) and the executive section an additional 20 hours (days 3, 4 and 5).

The program covers a wide range of topics regarding port and terminal management specifically related to inland river ports. We will cover the transportation system and how inland ports fit into domestic and international logistics, port and terminal management including staff functions, administration of ports and terminals, operations, equipment, terminal layouts and types, safety/security/regulatory requirements, waterways, property management, business development, tariffs, cargo management and pricing, media and public relations and planning processes including strategic and master planning. There are 3 actual case studies included and a class project. While the program has a structured content, it includes a great deal of information from practical experience and numerous consulting projects.

As a seminar, the shared experiences of the participants also adds to the content. We have over 2,000 alumni who have participated in these management programs. You receive a recognized industry professional certification when the program is complete and academic credit from the Loeb-Sullivan School of International Business and Logistics at Maine Maritime Academy. You also receive a free membership in the IAMPE with all membership privileges.

We hope you can join us. Registration closes Wednesday, September 19th.Contact info@iampe.org to register or Call Capt. Monroe at 207-741-7000 if you have questions.

Questions about content or the Education Program and Standards?

Call Capt. Jeff Monroe, (207)741-7000 or email at Jeffrey.monroe@iampe.org

CAN’T DO THE ENTIRE PROGRAM IN ONE SHOT? You can take the management program in two phases, MPM/IMPM first two days, MPE/IMPE second two days.

Certifications come with each section, Academic Credits are awarded after completing the Executive Management Program. We recommend doing the 36 hour program before taking Continuing Education because that 16 hour program builds on the content of the Executive Management Program

If you already have taken a program with us and know someone in your organization or an associate who would benefit from any of these seminars, please send this to them.
