400 Officers Certified in Navmaster ECDIS

Without leaving ship and using only email, over 400 officers are now formally certified in Navmaster ECDIS using PC Maritime’s training and certification DVD course.

This rigorous training course, which was launched 9 months ago, not only meets but exceeds the requirements issued by the Nautical Institute for ECDIS familiarisation training.  In a recent customer survey to which there were 152 respondents, 87% were satisfied or very satisfied with the course, and where it had arisen, 100% inspection compliance was achieved.  As one respondent stated: “It is a very comprehensive and good tool to have onboard to enhance my skills in operating Navmaster ECDIS.  All aspects covered from installation, operation and upgrading were to my entire satisfaction.”

The beauty of PC Maritime’s ECDIS familiarisation DVD is that one annual fee gives unlimited training and certification, there are no travel or subsistence costs and no time away from the job or shore leave. Once the officer has passed the Assessment test, his certificate is issued by return email after verification by PC Maritime.

PC Maritime’s latest Navmaster ECDIS, with 19”, 21” and 24” options, focuses on ease of use so that all operational commands are readily accessible from the main screen.  Standard Windows technology means that the user interface is already familiar to most users.  New features include support for the Admiralty Information Overlay, autopilot support, easier chart management and  a digital radar overlay option which can easily be retrofitted.
