Radar, ARPA, Bridge Teamwork and Search and Rescue – Radar Navigation at Management Level

Based on IMO Model Course 1.08

The course is essentially practical and consists of a series of exercises performed on radar simulator with two or more own-ships and a number of others controlled by the instructor. Each exercise will involve observing the movement of ships seen on the radar, recognising those presenting a threat of collision and taking action to avoid collisions. Trainees will act either as master or as an observing officer for the exercises, and will change roles to allow each a turn in command of an own-ship.

This course aims to meet the mandatory minimum requirements for knowledge, understanding and proficiency in Table A-II/2 of STCW.
