3t Achieves TGA Accreditation for Maritime Training in Saudi Arabia, Strengthening Regional Workforce Development

3t, a global leading provider of safety critical training and blended learning solutions for high-hazard industries, has achieved official accreditation by the Transport General Authority (TGA) for its maritime training programmes to be delivered at its Dammam training centre.

The endorsement by the TGA confirms that 3t’s maritime training meets internationally recognised standards, including the STCW framework, ensuring Saudi Arabia’s maritime workforce is equipped with world-class skills, safety protocols, and operational readiness. It marks a significant milestone in 3t’s commitment to supporting the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 goals, particularly in workforce localisation and the development of safety-critical capabilities.

“We are extremely proud to receive TGA accreditation,” said Hani Sagr, Managing Director MENA at 3t. “This recognition affirms the exceptional quality of our training programmes and our strategic commitment to Saudi Arabia’s maritime future. It enables us to deliver industry-aligned training that supports local talent development and meets the evolving needs of our clients and partners across the region.”

The accreditation enhances 3t’s ability to deliver advanced maritime training, positioning the company to further support key industry partners and its customers with even more in-demand courses, whilst also unlocking new partnership opportunities.

Dr. Atiyah Alatiyah, Director of Maritime Accreditation and Qualification at the TGA said: “The Transport General Authority has accredited 3t’s maritime training centre in Saudi Arabia for delivery of basic STCW courses. This recognition reflects our commitment to raising safety and operational standards across the Kingdom. By endorsing high-quality, internationally aligned training providers, we are helping to build a skilled, future-ready workforce that supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 goals and strengthens the Kingdom’s position as a global maritime leader.”

This achievement complements 3t’s wider strategic initiatives in the Kingdom, including the recent rebranding of its GTSC training centre in Dammam and the launch of a pioneering programme aimed at empowering women in Saudi Arabia’s energy sector. The initiative provides access to world-class, industry-accredited training across the energy value chain, supporting female workforce participation and contributing to the Kingdom’s inclusive development goals.

With a strategic focus on the maritime industry, 3t continues to combine global expertise with local insight to shape the next generation of maritime professionals in Saudi Arabia, advancing safety, operational excellence, and national energy objectives.
