The Inland Maritime Port Manager and Inland Maritime Port Executive (IMPM-IMPE) seminar is the premier professional development program for brown water port executives. The IMPM-IMPE program is a first-of-its-kind program, specifically designed around the needs and demands of river ports. The IMPM-IMPE program is based on the Maritime Port Executive program, which has been used to train over 2,000 professionals working in ocean ports.

Led by the International Association of Maritime and Port Executives (IAMPE), the class is an intensive, five-day seminar that covers all aspects of port management in detail.
