IHMA

The traditional port world is changing. Demographical, technological, and sustainability drivers are affecting daily business. As a harbour master in the port value chain, it’s important to know which changes will most likely occur and what the outcome will be for port operations. Lloyds Maritime Academy works closely with IHMA to periodically review the content of the Harbour Master course to provide up-to-date information reflecting the current practices of Harbour Masters at major ports around the world.
