Prof. Kelvin Bob-Manuel Foundation
A Nigerian foundation sponsors marine engineering graduates through the sea time and support required to pursue certification as ship's officers.
Field notes
The foundation describes a bridge from a marine engineering degree to professional shipboard certification: training, fees and support lead into 12–15 months aboard an approved vessel, followed by the Officer of the Watch examination. The homepage reports three cadets in its first intake and five shipping companies engaged for MOUs. Its wider structure includes cadet and ship-manager testimonials, a board, partner information, lectures and news, suggesting an organization built around both training delivery and industry coordination.
