Membership of The Nautical Institute Netherlands Branch
The Nautical Institute Netherlands Branch (NI-NL) is an independent body of The Nautical Institute (NI) in London, UK. We keep a list of all NI members living in The Netherlands and we will approach them from time to time to inform them about the branch. They are member of The nautical institute netherlands branch by default and will be on our mailing list for events and news.
Other interested maritime professionals who are interested in the work of the NI-NL can make a connection at the Linkedin page of the Netherlands Branch. Via this channel, all information on events and activities will come to you.
Membership of the branch is free for all members. For events and activities, the committee will seek funding from sponsors, and members. The committee may ask attendees for a contribution to participate in events and activities of NI-NL.
One of the goals of NI-NL is to raise the number of NI members in The Netherlands. In order to do so we will actively approach non- Members and ask them to become NI member. More information on memebrship of The Nautical Institute can be found below.
