Career Support Programs TO guide our community into meaningful careers

 

Women Offshore is seeking motivated individuals to submit their application for our Career Development Program.

Open to US citizens, the Women Offshore Career Development Program will take applicants through a 1-month personal development series that will ask tough questions to determine suitability for an exciting career on the water.

Once accepted into the program, participants will build a roadmap to success with our program coordinator. The program will cover costs associated with obtaining entry-level credentials.

While this program is only open to US citizens currently, we are looking to expand the program to recruit and support careers in other countries.
