December 15, 2017 T he C olumbia P ress Maritime: Good news for program Continued from Page 1 Should the two-year college be named a Domestic Mar- itime Center of Excellence, it will be able to admit more students, expand training fa- cilities, hire more faculty and create new maritime career paths. The act also allows the college to award credit for prior learning experiences, including military service. “This is huge for us,” said Bill Antilla, Maritime Tech- nology instructor at the col- lege. “There are a handful of colleges that could qualify for this and we are one of them.” College President Chris Breitmeyer pointed out that Clatsop’s position on the Pa- cific Ocean at the mouth of the Columbia River should give the college a high chance of winning the designation. “We are honored and great- ly appreciative that Congress is recognizing community colleges as training sourc- es for mariners and marine technology workers,” Breit- meyer said. “(We) welcome the opportunity to produce highly qualified workers to enter the maritime workforce and alleviate the shortages that are occurring due to re- tirements and the expanding global market.” The next step is for the U.S. Maritime Administration to determine the criteria for qualifying colleges. “Not only does this open doors for resources and di- rect funding, it recognizes the maritime industry as a valuable occupation,” Antil- la said. “People don’t always recognize what a lucrative opportunity the maritime industry can be. We need se- rious students in these pro- grams to fill the demand of these good-paying jobs.” Besides additional funds, the Maritime Administra- tion would provide support, technical assistance and even surplus federal assets like marine vessels to community and technical colleges to use in their training programs. Industry leaders have no- ticed a shortage of quali- fied maritime workers. The maritime industry requires technical skills training and licensing -- even for en- try-level positions. To earn credentials for each level of employment, mari- time workers must complete regular training, which can be provided by community and technical colleges at an affordable cost. Today, students here at the Marine and Environmental Research and Training Sta- tion, or MERTS, can get cer- tified in seamanship, vessel operations and other special- ized training.
