The IMarEST will accredit
or approve academic courses and industry-based graduate
training/development programmes in marine engineering,
marine science and marine technology. The IMarEST will
also recognise short courses that assist members in maintaining
their Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
The Accreditation, Approval or Recognition of courses
and training programmes means that the IMarEST has assessed
the course/programme against a set of criteria that ensures
a high standard of courses content, provision and assessment.
The process is by peer review by a panel of marine engineering,
marine science or marine technology experts and lasts
for a maximum of 5 years. After this period reaccreditation,
reapproval or resubmission for recognition is required.
The IMarEST endeavours to ensure that the highest standards
are maintained on all courses and training programmes
that are accredited, approved or recognised.
