“Teachers have three lovers: love of learning, love of learners, and the love of bringing the first two loves together.” – Scott Hayden.
​
The tutors that I experienced at ICS were epitomes of the above saying. They prepared the teaching material in such a manner, that we got our best with minimum effort, which is so necessary, as for the busy maritime professionals who are writing the exam, work is 24 x 7 in a literal sense.
​
The content in the class was kept concise and yet exhaustive, with a deliberate effort from the tutors to ensure that at the end of the day after work, though tired, we were still participating in the class, and used to follow up with our preparation beyond the classroom, encouraging us to ask questions/doubts even after class, and almost always promptly answering our doubts in the class group or on pm.
​
While I passed my exams in one attempt, I scored Distinction in the two papers, for which I enrolled for the classes. It goes on to say the importance of the Classes and the Tutors. I am sure I’d be struggling in both papers if I had not enrolled.
Grateful to Capt. Rajeev Kumar and Mr Muthu Jagannath for their influence and contribution to my preparation for the examination.

The ICS Classroom Training was the key to my success in the exams. Each meticulously crafted session, led by industry veterans, brought real-world expertise directly into the classroom. The interactive environment and strong tutor support made complex concepts easy to grasp. This exceptional training enabled me to achieve the highest marks in two ICS Professional Qualifying Examinations—an achievement I once thought was unattainable. For anyone serious about advancing in the shipping industry, the ICS Classroom Training is an essential investment in your future.

PQE equips students with a deep understanding of the shipping industry, instilling confidence in their ability to navigate the intricacies of documentation, optimize supply chain logistics, and stay compliant with international shipping laws. The tutorial classes are particularly useful for preparing students for the PQE exams.
​
The tutors are experienced professionals, well-known in the shipping industry, who bring real-world examples into the classroom. They actively engage students with discussions on relevant, ongoing events that shape the ever-changing shipping landscape. The classes are well-structured, with a pace that suits everyone, whether you're a seasoned professional or new to the field.
​
I highly recommend these tutorial classes, where exceptional tutors genuinely care about their students' success.
As a fresh graduate without any shipping experience, ICS has equipped me with the relevant skillset within a short period of time. With the help of my tutors and peers, I was able to quickly grasp the different concepts with real-world examples to supplement my understanding to value add to the learning process. ICS also serves as a melting pot for tutors and students alike to interact, share, and connect in this tight-knit community!
