Assessment of knowledge and competency:
The IMarEST is the only organization that can confer the CMarTech designation on those fulfilling the criteria. For this, you need to have your competency assessed by the IMarEST.
The evaluation is made on the basis of standards that are rigorously applied by IMarEST’s Professional Affairs and Education Committee and the Membership Committee, as being suitable for CMarTech.
The assessment process starts with a written application to IMarEST’s Membership Services Department. Claims of experience, qualifications and training will need formal documented proof. When giving details of your experience, you need to show how it relates to the necessary competencies for CMarTech.
After a review of the documented evidence, the Membership Committee will need you to have a professional review interview (PRI) 1. The Membership Services Department will inform you about the necessary procedures.
If deficiencies in the application come up, the Membership Committee will usually be able to suggest methods in which they can be addressed (this may involve further learning, training or extra experience).
If you receive a positive decision on your application for CMarTech, you will be registered as a Chartered Marine Technologist and your details will be included on the Register of Chartered Marine Technologists. The designation retention will need continued membership of the IMarEST and payment of the required subscription.
