Human Behaviour

Effective leadership varies not only depending on the task, job or function that needs to be accomplished, but also on the profile of the person or group that is being influenced. Good and effective leaders are those who are flexible and adaptive when it comes to their approaches.

Bridge Resource Management is a critical tool for the officer of the watch in order to maintain a safe navigational watch. BRM is the process to use all of the means available to you during critical operations taking into account not only electronic aids to navigation but also any other data provided during the watch and most importantly teamwork.

In this course, we'll cover:
- What is a Work-Life Balance?
- Why is this balance so important?
- Creating our own Work-Life Balance.
- Issues to Consider when Improving our Work-Life Balance.
- Making a Healthy Work-Life Balance Part of Your Culture.

This course will introduce and explain Rule 15 of the International Regulations for Prevention of Collisions at Sea (Rules of the Road).

In an environment with a speak-up culture, everyone is free and safe to express themselves and feel appreciated for doing so. When you encourage your crew to speak up — and therefore promote a speak-up culture — you empower them, keep them involved and feel confident that their input is valued.

This course will introduce, explain and then teach you how to begin learning the International Regulations for Prevention of Collisions at Sea (Rules of the Road).

SPOS Seakeeping delivers tailored, vessel-specific routing advice and is the only established solution to offer both voyage performance and fully integrated onboard ship motion optimisation. Not only is SPOS Seakeeping the master of forecasted vessel response and resonances, but the add-on module also provides tools to help you make decisions in course changes (direction and speed insights) to safely escape motion occurrences.

This course gives additional training for operations in polar waters, underpinning the knowledge gained during STCW polar courses. In this course, deck officers will be given guidance and advice on personal health and safety in polar waters. This course is not meant to be an approved STCW course but an additional training course for onboard learning.

New crew members joining a ship must be familiarised with their duties and essential information about the ship. This ensures they understand their responsibilities thoroughly before commencing their duties. Proficiency and familiarisation are critical factors in preventing failures and safety hazards. Though all crew personnel joining the ship have to do STCW training, there are several specific instructions which are essential for safe operations on ships.

Every action affects its surroundings with a chain or ripple effect. This is the reason why stopping unsafe acts is necessary. By doing so, you can prevent potential dangers and also show your team that you are reliable and responsible.

This course is intended to provide basic knowledge of the International Safety Management Code, ISM code. The purpose of the ISM Code is to provide an international standard for the safe management, safe operation of ships and pollution prevention. The ISM Code is one of the most fundamental regulations within international shipping. Therefore, knowledge about the rules is of utmost importance so that you are aware of the requirements and expectations.
