With Marintec 2011 less than a month away, we wanted to let you know about a series of Digital Integration Workshops which Admiralty will be running at the show.
The practical and easy-to-follow workshops – which are free to attend – look at the forthcoming ECDIS regulations and take delegates through the key issues involved.
The workshops look at each stage of complying with the regulations; from the initial fleet assessment and impact on Flag State requirements; through installation and crew training, to recommendations on managing the switch from paper to digital charts on the bridge.
The practical workshops have been developed in conjunction with Captain Paul Hailwood, a renowned expert on ECDIS and integrated bridge operations, and will be delivered by trainer Joe Collins, a Master Mariner with almost 40 years’ experience in the marine industry.
Captain Hailwood has managed the ‘real world’ introduction of ECDIS across a number of shipping fleets and the sessions offer insight from shipping managers and mariners who have successfully integrated digital navigation into their operations.
At the end of the workshop delegates will receive a simple checklist for every stage of the ECDIS journey, to help them with their own preparation.
Workshops will be held daily on Admiralty’s stand (5J31, Hall W5). To reserve a place visit: www.regonline.co.uk/admiraltymarintec.
