AMC Search markets and administers short courses on behalf of AMC which retains academic control of all courses.

Maritime Training Package

The University of Tasmania, trading as the Australian Maritime College (AMC) is a registered Training Organisation and has a partnership agreement with AMC Search Ltd.  This enables AMC to award Statements of Attainment within its scope of registration where short courses administered by AMC Search have been deemed equivalent to units of competency with the Maritime Training Package.   Throughout the programme, the equivalency has been identified and the unit title and codes from the Maritime Training Package indicated.  Units delivered under the Maritime Training Package are GST free.

Flexible Delivery

Where there is sufficient numbers of participants, many short courses can be conducted on demand, on client premises, interstate and internationally. AMC regularly conducts short courses in all states of Australia and in countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands and the Middle East.
