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).

When working onboard, one is exposed to hazards and risks all the time. By raising awareness of the hazards, the likelihood can be decreased and thereby, also the potential risk. This course is intended to provide you with the fundamental knowledge of Risk Assessment onboard and give you a useful tool to handle potential risks.

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.

The concept of accepting things as they are is a fundamental principle of many spiritual and philosophical traditions. It refers to the idea of letting go of our desire to control or change the world around us, and instead, embracing the present moment and the reality of our circumstances. It can be challenging to accept things as they are, however, doing so can bring a sense of peace and freedom that is essential for a fulfilling and meaningful life.

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.

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).

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.

The purpose of refrigeration systems on board vessels is to store temperature-sensitive cargo, perishable food supplies and air conditioning. In line with the Montreal Protocol, and as per MARPOL Annex VI, refrigeration installations must comply with various requirements, including the charging and discharging of systems, and the types of refrigerant utilised.

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.

Having an understanding of the laws and theorems related to three-phase electrical power systems will aid in your course absorption. In this course, you will learn exactly what 'Per Unit Analysis' is and how manufacturers of equipment use it to rate their equipment.

In this course, how Digital Electric Circuits work in modern Intelligent Electrical Devices (IED's), logic gates, digital flip-flops and shift registers will be covered. The student should have a basic understanding of electrical circuitry and have the capability to read circuit diagrams to get the most from this course.
