About Us

Maritime Education & Training Ltd (METL) is an independent provider of commercial maritime education offering bespoke training for students preparing for the annual exams of the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers (ICS).

METL was created on the eve of the academic year in September 2002,  when a university unexpectedly withdrew from providing evening classes in shipping. Determined to support the students, Jeffrey Blum founded METL with some of the university's established lecturers.

As one of the earliest members of Maritime London, METL continuously supports maritime services in the capital.

Our students come from all areas of activity within shipping, as well as from outside the industry who are looking for a change of career. All students will benefit from our courses, whether they are building on existing knowledge and experience or are new to shipping. 

METL has evolved into a world recognised provider of maritime education and all our lecturers have extensive and varied careers in this industry.

METL provides bespoke training for companies and individuals. Contact us to discuss your needs.
