In a recent letter of appreciation, the China Maritime Safety Administration (CMSA) recognized the International Register of Shipping (INTLREG) for its critical support in organizing the 2024 Registered Ship Surveyor Qualification Examination. This national-level examination, conducted from August 27 to September 22, plays a crucial role in assessing and selecting skilled surveyors, a vital component of China’s shipbuilding and maritime industries.

As a global leader in shipping, China values the development of qualified ship surveyors to sustain its maritime industry’s growth and align with its goals for transportation leadership and socialist modernization. The Registered Ship Surveyor Qualification Examination ensures that those entering this field possess the high level of expertise needed to uphold and advance ship inspection standards.

The CMSA expressed special thanks to Mr. Yao Tuan of INTLREG, whose dedication and expertise greatly contributed to the preparation for this important examination. Mr. Yao’s extensive practical experience, industry insight, and professionalism were instrumental in ensuring the success of the exam. Working diligently over the 20-day period, Mr. Yao exhibited both technical acumen and an in-depth understanding of the industry’s future directions and talent needs, while demonstrating steadfast discipline and commitment to CMSA’s objectives.

CMSA’s letter is a testament to INTLREG’s commitment to maritime safety and the development of skilled ship inspection professionals. CMSA looks forward to further collaboration with INTLREG, confident that ongoing support from the organization will play an essential role in enhancing the quality and growth of China’s maritime inspection sector.

This recognition not only honors Mr. Yao’s individual efforts but also highlights INTLREG’s integral role as a trusted partner in advancing China’s shipbuilding and maritime industries toward excellence.
