Chennai School of Ship Management (CSSM) was incepted in the year April 1998 with an objective to impart Marine Engineering training, thus producing adequately trained manpower in high level to fulfill the growing demands of the shipping industry at international level. Such an aspiration had arisen when there was an invitation from the Director General of Shipping to the maritime training institutes in India, to try the feasibility of a unique marine engineering course under the Alternate Training Scheme (ATS). The ATS was the brainchild of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), which designed and developed the training curriculum of ATS.
CSSM conducts the ATS with the approval of Director General of Shipping, Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport & Highways, Government of India under approval no.3-TR(26)/97 dated 01.02.1999. Since then, CSSM has been into this course, and presently, the 9th batch is in progress, with 6 batches already passed out and working in various levels as Marine Engineers.
