The
Dubai Maritime City Authority is to establish a specialized institute that will provide boat sailing training and licensing for owners of
leisure boats and yachts of all sizes. The new institute will support the development of the UAE’s maritime sector by encouraging boat
owners and users to adopt the highest standards of safety on the water.
The institute will provide owners of boats and yachts with boat sailing and registration licenses, in addition to offering boat sailing courses.
The Dubai Maritime City Campus will accommodate the institute, which is an area that comprises integrated state-of-the-art educational
institutions that adopt the best international standards and offers easy sea access.
“This is the first institute of its kind in the region, which has been launched as part of our continuous efforts to provide high-level services
and facilities to meet the rapidly growing demands of the UAE’s maritime sector. The new institute is one of the highlights of Dubai Maritime
City; and will ensure that this development is an integrated maritime centre at all levels,” said Captain Majid Al Shamsi, Institute Project
Manager.
“Through the institute, everyone in the UAE will have an opportunity to obtain licenses for the sailing of leisure boats and
yachts.”
The
Dubai Maritime City recently commenced the first phase of the project, which includes preparation and planning; with services
expected to begin from June 2008.
