On the 26th of July 2002, the Professional arm of the Chartered Institute of Shipping, Nigeria was gazette by the National Assembly wide government notice No. 70 vol. 89 to train and regulate the entry of persons into the shipping profession and allied matters in Nigeria.

Accordingly all programmes and qualifications of CIS STS Diploma and Associate Diploma were vetted and assessed by the Federal Ministry of Education.
