Center for Maritime Training offers enhanced License program. 

BUZZARDS BAY, MA - The Center for Maritime Training at Massachusetts
Maritime Academy recently received approval from the United States Coast
Guard to offer Assistance Towing and Auxiliary Sailing Endorsement courses.
These courses include review and on-site examinations for the Coast Guard's
Towing and Sailing Assistance license endorsements. With the addition of
these programs, the Center now offers a complete one-stop resource of
enhanced programming for those seeking to obtain their captain's license. 
The Center for Maritime Training offers the OUPV (Operator of Uninspected
Passenger Vessel) and 100 Ton Master License course year-round with flexible
scheduling. This level of license, issued by the United States Coast Guard,
permits operation of a passenger vessel up to 100 Gross Tons. This license
is most frequently required for charter boat captains, ferry and tug
operators. In addition to the Buzzards Bay campus, the courses are also
offered on Martha's Vineyard and in Marshfield, Massachusetts. 
Program information and course schedules are available at
