Northrop Grumman Sperry Marine Training Agreement to offer ECDIS training services

ECDIS training services worldwide

ETC, the MSG MarineServe ECDIS training consortium, has been appointed as official training agent by Northrop Grumman Sperry Marine to manage the provision of ECDIS training services worldwide through its partners.

The agreement complements existing arrangements with MSG and its sister company, Safebridge, to ensure that Northrop Grumman Sperry Marine is able to fulfill its equipment training obligations toward its customers worldwide through a comprehensive training structure and methodology.

This approach guarantees the quality and consistency of the training while providing Northrop Grumman Sperry Marine with the transparency required on content, quality standards and recordkeeping, ETC said.

ETC also claimed that it is in a position through its partners to meet the multi-locational nature of the demand for training at a commercially viable price. It will deliver MSG’s ECDIS training courseware, ECDIS training systems and approved train-the-trainer courses.

The company will provide 24/7 certificate authentication and trainee database services for reference by its partners, customers, Port State Control and other concerned authorities.
