Maritime Program

Maritime Program

Whether you're launching a new career in the maritime industry or returning to refresh your skills, the LSCO Maritime Program offers hands-on training to meet the growing demand for maritime professionals.

The Texas Workforce Commission projects a 14% increase in maritime careers across the state in the coming years. The Department of Labor anticipates similar growth nationwide.

Our training facility features advanced Transas Simulators, giving both new and experienced mariners the opportunity to practice safe vessel operation throughout Texas, Louisiana, and other U.S. waterways.

Training takes place on the LSCO campus, conveniently located between Houston and New Orleans. Our program delivers high-quality instruction at a much more affordable cost compared to other training centers.
