Make your carrier to take off with Columbia Cadets Program
Columbia cadets program was in the existence almost from the time company was created back in nineties because company’s Owner Mr. H. Schoeller was always supporting a lot the idea of maritime education and necessity to provide world merchant fleet with properly trained cadets and junior officers.

Properly structured and formal cadets’ program was launched in 2006 whereby a dedicated Manager in Columbia Cyprus was appointed to run pre-selection procedures, approval and placement of cadets and junior officers on board of CSM fleet. This cadets’ program was designed to select the best candidate from different maritime academies around the globe to bring multy culture and best cadets for CSM needs. Further career growth and steady and well planned employment are guaranteed for the cadets’ program participants who successfully passed the sailing practice on board of CSM ships.

Columbia is preselecting cadets for sea board practice via CSM Baltija office in Riga only from Academies in Baltic States to be able to operate the modern day’s fleet and to be able to handle modern day’s challenges facing maritime industry.

During that sea board practice Columbia pays cadets originating from Baltic States 500 USD monthly as a cadetship which lasts around 6 months to enable cadets to accumulate sufficient sailing period and to get their National Licences upon graduation. Columbia also pays for their additionally required professional courses (depending on the ship’s type). Columbia does not pay cadets any other allowance after completion of their sailing practice until Academy graduation. Upon graduation from Academies participants have to get the appropriate National Certificate of Competency and to return back to Columbia. After additional in-house training courses Columbia assigns graduates on one of CSM ships as a Junior Officer with an option of promotion to Officer’s rank within one or two months on the very same ship. Promotion goes smoothly in case of positive feedback from the ship’ command with a final recommendation for promotion on board. Ex-cadets, the program participants, have unprecedented advantages in their career growth in comparison with other graduates from even the very same academies because as a normal practice Columbia will accept newcomers for any position with minimum two contracts in the same rank on a comparable size/type of ships whereby CSM ex – cadets are having a really fast track promotion and steady progression in rank overtaking their former friends from Academies by at least one two years in the carrier development.

2013 year program is approved for more than 200 cadets from different countries. 10 cadets vacancies were allocated for Baltic States Academies as well. It is anticipated that there will be further opportunities in future for the cadets from Baltic States academies.
