The Foundation
The Canadian Marine Careers Foundation (CMCF) is bringing together marine stakeholders to develop dynamic and innovative solutions to build a diverse, inclusive and future-ready workforce for the Canadian marine sector.
The CMCF serves as a resource centre for information on careers at sea and ashore as well as financial assistance available to support maritime studies at nautical schools and academic institutions. The CMCF also serves as a point of contact to direct educational, mentoring and employment inquiries to appropriate channels.

Canada's marine industry needs to attract the best and brightest talent, whether ashore or afloat, by offering careers to satisfy a wide range of interests and goals. The CMCF is working to raise awareness of the opportunities offered for skilled labour, trades and accredited professionals to steer the industry forward.
Through its Imagine Marine campaign, the CMCF is reaching out to deliver the message of job opportunities in the marine sector for young people, second career seekers, new citizens and equity-deserving groups.
