a month agoPursuing DNS sponsored by BSM, have a spent a month as of now. Till now I have to admit it's the best training institute there is and the faculties teach their subject in way that we wont forget it for a lifetime and will remember it throughout our journey as a seafarer. And the facilities are even better from VR rooms to world class sports centres . Choosing HIMT was one of the best decisions I've made and will recommend to everyone who is choosing a job in this field.
