Celebrating 40 years
In 2014 we celebrated 40 years of ICS Ireland. During this period we have actively promoted education within the shipping industry and continue to offer lecturers at DCU to facilitate those that undertake the Institutes examinations.
Our educational programmes have resulted in an increase in students and pass rates during this period.
