The Academy, which focuses on research, development, and innovation in port and terminal management, said the membership drive is aimed at professionalising careers and raising standards across the industry.

According to a press statement issued and signed by the Rector of the academy, Prof. Babatubde Samuel, interested individuals can apply under four categories: Associates, Full Members, Research Fellows, and Honourary Fellows.

The programme, prof. Samuel said, is open to professionals and practitioners currently working in port and terminal operations and management.

The initiative is positioned as a “Golden Opportunity” for industry players to gain formal recognition, upgrade their professional standing, and contribute to the growth of Nigeria’s maritime and logistics sector.
