Ready to Work. Ready for the World.

Whether you're aiming to start your maritime career right away or earn a full qualification along the way, AMCOL offers flexible international programs to match your goals.

Want to work onboard as soon as possible?
We’ve got you covered. Programs like Rating, IMO 7.03, and IMO 7.04 let you enter the maritime industry quickly—with proper training, certification, and real sea experience. They’re short, focused, and job-ready.

Want a full degree and more career options?
We also offer longer programs where you earn official Thai vocational or bachelor degrees while also getting your sea service and certifications. These tracks are great if you want to work onboard and later move into management or logistics.

Most of our programs are taught in Thai.
That’s why we recommend students to have at least an intermediate level of Thai. But don’t worry—if you can’t speak Thai yet, we offer a 2-month Thai language preparation course before the program starts (with extra cost).

By the time you graduate, you’ll speak Thai, understand Thai culture, and become part of a community that supports you both at sea and on land.
Whether it’s your first time in Thailand or you already love it—we’ll help you adapt, grow, and succeed.
