Sleepy Summer??? Not for NAMEPA

The summer, so far, has been far from sleepy! NAMEPA’s Executive Director, Molly Dushay, and Education and Outreach Manager, Meghan Reilly, have been busy raising awareness about our industry in both New Orleans and Los Angeles/Long Beach! Armed with our latest materials promoting the maritime industry, they have been meeting with educators and guidance counselors to help them understand the importance of the maritime industry and the many lucrative careers available to students of all ages!

Of particular note was the enthusiastic response to our Maritime Exploration Guide, which received high marks by educators and industry alike! One of the people who reached out to us said:

Folks,

I just learned about NAMEPA today after reading about the new student guide in Professional Mariner magazine.

What a GREAT effort, and a comprehensive guide for students who might be interested in the maritime field.

I wish that something like this had existed when I was trying to chart my course many years ago; It could have made a big difference in helping me to learn more about my options

This underscores only one of the reasons NAMEPA’s work is important! Take a look at all our resources today and see how you can help spread the word!
