Institutes Offering RANSCO course in Delhi/NCR
However, as far as seafarers in the region of Chandigarh and its neighboring regions of North India are concerned, the availability of a local DG Shipping-authorized institute offering the RANSCO course has proven difficult to achieve since no such institution exists in Chandigarh itself, leading almost all aspirants to seek admission into the RANSCO course in Delhi/NCR. Indeed, it would be quite fair to say that Delhi/NCR is the focal point of maritime education in North India with a number of high-profile institutions offering the facilities required to complete the course. The distance between the cities of Chandigarh and Delhi/NCR can be easily traversed by both train and road, providing a variety of batches at competitive prices.
