The Port of Cork is the key seaport in the south of Ireland and is one of only two Irish ports which service the requirements of all five shipping modes i.e. Lift-on Lift-off, Roll-on Roll-off, Liquid Bulk, Dry Bulk and Break Bulk.
The port has made significant strides in recent decades attracting new shipping services, new trades, further private sector investment and investment in state of the art facilities. Such investment has equipped the port to handle the widest possible range of traffic.
The Port of Cork has four distinct public port facilities situated at the Tivoli Industrial and Dock Estate, Ringaskiddy Deepwater and Ferry Terminal, Cobh Cruise Terminal and the City Quays.
Due to its favourable location on the south coast of Ireland and it modern facilities, the Port of Cork is ideally positioned for additional European trading and deep sea shipping services.
Port of Cork in Partnership with NMCI
The Port of Cork (POC) and the National Maritime College of Ireland (NMCI) have signed a strategic partnership alliance focused on delivering a suite of courses specifically aimed at the port sector. Cork is the first port in Ireland to offer such training programmes, pushing the Port of Cork to the forefront of industry training.
Drawing upon the expertise of both port professionals and college lecturing staff, the partnership will deliver much needed training to the industry through the use of modern simulation equipment, port facilities and the state of the art instruction environment of the NMCI.
