Now training on all contents from New Orleans to Tokyo, the ECDIS Ltd Inspectors Course recently celebrated the attendance of its 400th student.
The course is said to leave the inspector armed with the right level of understanding of the minimum standard expected over all 38 manufacturers of ECDIS, and practical questions to ask the team ensuring the ship can safely use their ECDIS, regardless of what certificates they may hold.
Managing Director of the UK company, Mark Broster, said:
“Our key focus on the Inspectors course was to proactively help the industry learn what specifics to look for when dealing with observations, detentions and recent grounding that could have been avoided. We have seen considerable take-up from all sectors of the industry as they have seen the true potential in this course as a means of helping mitigate risk.”
