ECDIS Training for Maritime Pilots, by SafeLearn
Safebridge has developed this course, specifically addressed to pilots operating the onboard ECDIS equipment, covering generic ECDIS training and type-specific modules for various manufacturers.
Pilots are in a different situation from ships’ bridge crews when it comes to operating ECDIS. They do not manage the system files or input and update data; therefore, not all subjects covered in the IMO Model Course and Type Specific Training (TST) are directly relevant to a pilot’s job.
“ECDIS Training for Maritime Pilots” covers both generic topics and type-specific familiarisation that specifically addresses pilots’ needs.
