Maritime Paint

Course description

Students in maritime paint courses are prepared to work at Electric Boat. This course prepares participants with the painting skills and knowledge for industry employment requiring the application of basic maritime paint knowledge in manufacturing environments dedicated to the production of vessels for the U.S. Navy.

This is a free course that mixes hands-on education with classroom instruction. Community College of Rhode Island instructors, most of whom have worked at Electric Boat, lead the courses in essential skills. The small class size and frequent interaction with the instructor and teacher’s assistant enable students to have a more personalized experience.

The Eastern Connecticut Manufacturing Pipeline Initiative provides no-cost training to address the hiring needs of General Dynamics Electric Boat, other members of the Eastern Advanced Manufacturing Alliance Regional Sector Partnership, and other manufacturers.

This is an ideal workforce development course for anyone interested in pursuing a career in shipbuilding at General Dynamics Electric Boat, which is one of the nation’s premier defense contractors building and delivering submarines critically important to the United States Navy. Trainings take place at Westerly Education Center, Westerly, RI.
