"For me, joining Anglo-Eastern was the best decision of my life," said A Mehta, a second officer who has been with the company for eight years. "From my first cadetship to my current role, the training and support I've received here have been exceptional. The structured promotions and career development programs ensure that hard work is recognized and rewarded."
Many cadets at the event echoed similar sentiments, emphasizing how Anglo-Eastern's training programs have shaped their careers. "The academy gives you a rock-solid foundation. You don't just get theoretical knowledge; you get practical, hands-on experience. Plus, with a 100% placement record, you know you have a job waiting for you after completing the program," said Rahul S, a deck cadet currently undergoing training at Anglo-Eastern Maritime Academy.
Capt. Bjorn Hojgaard, CEO of Anglo-Eastern, also took the time to speak exclusively with Sailor Today Maritime Radio, sharing his thoughts on the future of Indian seafarers and Anglo-Eastern’s contribution to their growth.This story is from the February 2025 edition of Sailor Today.
