Human Behaviour

This course offers a detailed insight into starting a career in the deck department within the superyacht industry.

It is designed to better understand the superyacht industry's professional culture and help you recognise the importance of setting good first impressions, the need for discretion and developing your professional network.

This course provides basic knowledge to handle epoxy paint, a thermosetting plastics, onboard. The course aligns with the Swedish Work Environment Authority rules AFS 2011:19.

This course is intended to provide knowledge for all port facility personnel that are not engaged in security duties, in order to implement the security awareness in accordance with the requirements of the relevant international legislation.

Many shipping companies have a set of company values. These values are written in the company mission and vision statements, and other similar mottoes prominently displayed in the office lobby, company website and company handbook. Whether the crew members practice those values on board is another matter.

The purpose of this course is to introduce you to the IGF Code. We will follow the fuel's way through the ship. Starting at bunkering to storage and finally, through the fuel system, you will also learn about managing potential risks.

This course is designed for onboard and ashore training shipboard personnel in identifying emergency towing equipment, their uses, and the hazards imposed when these are in use. The learner will reinforce training given during Tanker Safety Courses, and this will provide the development of STCW competencies as well as SOLAS requirements for tanker operations.

This course will introduce and explain Rules 16 and 17 of the International Regulations for Prevention of Collisions at Sea (Rules of the Road).

All safety equipment onboard must conform to the requirements of SOLAS Chapter III and the LSA Code. To ensure that the equipment remains in working order, it must be inspected and maintained regularly to ensure that it is ready for use in an emergency.

Nitrogen systems onboard are required in order to ensure that ships are compliant with the various regulations and to ensure protection of the transportation of sensitive and flammable cargoes. Nitrogen is the purest inert gas medium, hence why it is the preferred solution onboard ships where the possibility of cargo contamination is present. Having said that, it is of paramount importance for crew working on these types of ships to know the hazards of Nitrogen and its proper uses.

Welcome to an introductory course on container firefighting where you will learn about different container types, what classes of cargo are stored inside them and how to boundary cool in the case of a fire on board.

As an engine room team member you have a vital role. You have to combine an understanding of the ship’s machinery with an awareness of company procedure, while all the time maintaining high safety standards.
In engine room watchkeeping, there is also another factor - teamwork. It is crucial both deck and engineering personnel bear in mind they are part of one team, not just within their own department but with each other. For example, now the majority of main propulsion plants are directly controlled from the bridge, this has brought the deck and engineering departments closer together.
