The event has brought together students, educators, industry players and training institutions, providing a valuable platform for career guidance and skills development.
Representing BMA Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Eric Katana, Senior Career Services Officer, Samuel Dube, engaged participants through an informative session highlighting the diverse courses offered at the Academy.
He emphasized the growing opportunities within the Maritime and Blue Economy sectors, outlining clear career pathways and the strong employability prospects for BMA graduates both locally and internationally.
