Advanced Fire Fighting

Advanced Fire Fighting, as outlined by the STCW Convention and IMO Model Course 2.03, enables seafarers to control fire-fighting operations onboard ships, coordinate activities, and apply advanced techniques for extinguishing fires. It equips participants with the skills to manage fire emergencies effectively.

ECDIS

This simulator course provides seafarers with the required knowledge, understanding, and proficiency in the use of Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems (ECDIS), in compliance with STCW Tables A-II/1, A-II/2, and A-II/3, and IMO Model Course 1.27. Training ensures navigational officers are competent in using modern electronic chart systems safely and effectively.

Medical First Aid

The STCW (Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping) Convention, specifically Table A-VI/4-1, and the IMO (International Maritime Organization) Model Course 1.14 outline the requirements for Medical First Aid training for seafarers. This training equips seafarers to provide immediate and effective first aid in medical emergencies on board ships, before professional medical help arrives.

GMDSS Course

This simulator course enables an individual to acquire the required knowledge, competence, and skill to operate a GMDSS system used when a ship is in distress for communication and relaying distress messages. This course (including exams) is mandatory for Deck Cadets appearing for their 2nd Mate FG Exams at MMDs. GMDSS (GOC) course covers the mandatory minimum requirement for certification of GMDSS operator as specified in Section A-IV/2 of the STCW 1995 code.

RADAR, ARPA & Navigation Simulator Course

This simulator course enables a seafarer to get the required knowledge, competence & skill to become a Chief Officer onboard a Foreign Going (FG) Vessel after clearing MMD Exams. This course, along with other courses, is mandatory for 2nd Mate CoC Holders aspiring to appear for Chief Mate FG Examinations at MMDs after completing their sea service.

Radar Navigation, Radar Plotting and Use of ARPA – Radar Navigation at Operational Level

Based on IMO Model Course 1.07

A trainee successfully completing this course and meeting the required performance standards will recognise when radar should be in use; will select a suitable mode and range setting for the circumstances; will be able to set the controls for optimal performance; and will be aware of equipment limitations in accurately detecting targets.
The trainee will also be able to choose an appropriate radar presentation mode; select plotting and graphics controls suitable to the circumstances; make appropriate use of operational alarms; acquire and track those targets which may present a potential threat of collision; extract the information needed on course, speed and nearest approach to enable early action (in accordance with COLREGs) to prevent close-quarters situations; and make use of radar to confirm and monitor actions.

The trainee will understand the dangers of over-reliance on the automatic acquisition and tracking of targets and on operational alarms; will also be aware of the performance standards set out in IMO resolutions on radar performances, and factors (including errors from sensor inputs) which may affect the accuracy of received information; and will realise the need to check the accuracy of inputs and the correct functioning of the radar.

Radar, ARPA, Bridge Teamwork and Search and Rescue – Radar Navigation at Management Level

Based on IMO Model Course 1.08

The course is essentially practical and consists of a series of exercises performed on radar simulator with two or more own-ships and a number of others controlled by the instructor. Each exercise will involve observing the movement of ships seen on the radar, recognising those presenting a threat of collision and taking action to avoid collisions. Trainees will act either as master or as an observing officer for the exercises, and will change roles to allow each a turn in command of an own-ship.

This course aims to meet the mandatory minimum requirements for knowledge, understanding and proficiency in Table A-II/2 of STCW.
