Focusing on basic unmanned maritime skills that can be applied to shipbuilding, offshore petroleum/drilling, seafood, transportation, tourism, marine engine, and other maritime occupations, MGCCC will continue to address industry needs through academia and training. Among the industries that are prominent in the unique environment of the Gulf of Mexico, industry partners continuously express the need for a skilled workforce.
Maritime Multi-Craft Technology prepares individuals with technician skills in the field of maritime technology leading to credentials from NCCER, AWS, OSHA, RigPass, WellSharp, and the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC) Gateway Program. Skills and competencies covered in this program include maritime electrical, maritime engine, oil and gas, drilling rig fundamentals, and industrial maintenance.
This program leads to an Associate of Applied Science Degree and is preparatory for employment upon graduation from MGCCC. Where a transfer to 4-year college or university is desired, a conference should be scheduled with a MGCCC advisor.
All students completing a career or technical program must complete either the MS-CPAS (Mississippi Career Planning and Assessment System) or an MGCCC Board- approved Technical Skills Attainment assessment where applicable. Students should see an advisor for further details.
