Bandari Maritime Academy (BMA) is encouraging young people from the Lake Region to pursue maritime education and training by showcasing the vast opportunities available in the blue economy.
At the ongoing 2026 Agricultural Society of Kenya (ASK) Show at the Mamboleo Showground in Kisumu County, BMA officers are engaging students, school leavers and other youths, providing information on the Academy’s maritime programmes and career pathways.
The officers are highlighting courses offered at the Academy, entry requirements and internationally recognised qualifications that prepare graduates for employment in the maritime sector.
They are also sensitising visitors on the diverse career opportunities available in shipping, ports, inland water transport, marine logistics, fisheries, cruise ships and other blue economy sectors, encouraging more young people to enrol for maritime training.
