CMAP – Curtin Maritime Accelerator Program

CEO Martin Curtin’s thoughts on adding new members to the Curtin Maritime team are simple: “If they’ve got the hearts and the smarts and are willing to put the work in, they can be making six figures, and we can change their lives. The opportunities that exist here don’t exist anywhere else.” 

This is thanks in large part to the success of the Curtin Maritime Accelerator Program (CMAP), our one-of-a-kind maritime training program that was developed to serve employees who are interested in a career in the maritime industry. 

We nurture growth and strive for excellence. We believe in investing in our people and their development. We respect and value the individual talents of each employee, recognizing that our combined strengths are the key to our success.

Curtin Maritime is committed to creating an accelerated, respectable, and high-paying career path for our entry-level employees. We take a hands-on, personalized approach to maritime training and career progression, guiding our team to navigate their passions, both on and off the job.

For new employees, CMAP provides the training, experience and tools to help aspiring mariners learn about the maritime industry, craftsmanship, project management and many more life-long skills.

More About CMAP

CMAP begins with the ‘Curtin Heart Check.’ Employees then navigate through a rigorous, self-led training program, taking anywhere from four weeks to six months to complete. 

CMAP develops operational readiness and provides employees with an opportunity to build both foundational and advanced skills necessary to become highly-trained maritime professionals for skilled tradespeople including; deckhands, welders, engineers, mates, crane operators, or Captains. CMAP also teaches new Curtin Maritime employees about the ‘Curtin’ way.
