IMO Model Course 3.17: Maritime English

There are two sections in the revised IMO model course on Maritime English:

• Core section 1: General Maritime English (GME), and
• Core section 2: Specialized Maritime English (SME), both of which contain a number of detailed teaching syllabi.

GME means that the first stage of Maritime English instruction could be general. SME means that the second stage of Maritime English instruction could be maritime-specific.
