PAMI

The Philippine Association of Maritime Institutions (PAMI) was born in 1969 as the Private Nautical Schools Association of the Philippines (PNSAP). Founded by Atty. Tomas Cloma Sr. of the Philippine Maritime Institute, it was formed to serve as the platform of cooperation among higher maritime education institutions. PNSAP had four original member schools, the government-owned Escuela Nautica de Manila (now PMMA), and pioneer private schools Philippine Maritime Institute (now PMI Colleges), Iloilo Maritime Academy (now JBLCF), and NAMEI Polytechnic Institute.
