In this short course, we will watch a video of an incident and then analyse it to see what went wrong and what could have been done to prevent this incident.

In this short course, we will watch a video of an incident and then analyse it to see what went wrong and what could have been done to prevent this incident.

This incident is based on the experiences of the UK P&I Club. Accidents like the one in this course can and do happen. As you go through this course, ask yourself, "Could this happen on my ship?"

Explore the cutting-edge world of maritime digitalisation in this advanced course. Dive deep into AI-driven ship systems, real-time data transmission, cloud integration, and cybersecurity. Learn how autonomous ships transform operations, improve decision-making, and optimise efficiency. Gain insights into the latest regulatory trends and discover how these technologies will shape the future of shipping. Perfect for maritime professionals aiming to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving industry!

Discover how digital technologies are revolutionising the shipping industry and transforming your maritime career with our 'Digitalisation in Shipping: Foundations and Essentials' course. Learn how IoT, data analytics, and predictive maintenance optimise ship performance, reduce costs, and improve safety. Stay ahead of the curve with insights into smart shipping tools that help meet stringent environmental and regulatory standards. Whether onboard or shore-based, this course equips you with the essential skills to excel in today’s rapidly evolving digital maritime landscape.

In this course, you will learn about the switchboard and how it, in most cases, is constructed. We will look at different types, and you will learn how they work. You will get to know the idea behind the many wires and why they are needed, and you will gain knowledge about wire dimensioning and how they are connected correctly.

This course guides engineers in carrying out a self-audit to prepare the vessel for inspections (Sire 2.0, RISQ, PSC, Flag State, etc). It helps engineers know the requirements, and the vessel in greater depth within a structured manner.

A successful self-audit requires crew knowledge and preparedness about what is expected to be examined during an inspection. This is for documentation, hardware, critical and emergency operations, and the standards of testing.

An Exhaust Gas Cleaning System (EGCS), often referred to as scrubbers, is a device installed onboard marine vessels that literally “scrubs” harmful sulphur oxides from exhaust gases.

The technology is commonly installed on ships seeking compliance options in the face of tighter emissions regulations. Scrubbers have been adopted for compliance within Emission Control Areas near coastlines. They are also being installed to comply with the International Maritime Organization’s global sulphur cap from 1st January 2020.

Learn about the different types of Inert Gas systems, on gas tankers; and how they differ from Inert gas systems on oil tankers.

This comprehensive learning path is tailored for engine department personnel, seeking to enhance their understanding of critical incidents and improve safety protocols on board. Through detailed case studies, learners will explore real-world scenarios that provide valuable lessons in maritime operations. The courses included cover a range of incidents offering insights and practical knowledge to prevent similar occurrences in the future.

This learning path is tailored for officers, focusing on the Vessel Inspection Questionnaire (VIQ) standards. It covers critical aspects of ship operations and safety management, ensuring compliance and excellence in maritime inspections. By completing this learning path, officers will be well-prepared for vessel inspections, demonstrating proficiency in essential operational and safety procedures according to the VIQ framework.

Learn about the different types of Inert Gas systems, inerting operations, the types of ships they are applicable to, their advantages and limitations.
