It is an ideal resource for companies offering courses to meet IMO Model Course 1.27, enabling them to provide realistic practical ECDIS exercises to complement the teaching of electronic navigation theory. “Our Navmaster ECDIS training system allows us to take classes of 24 students at once, making the teaching process far less time-consuming. We train approximately 60 of our own students during the third and fourth term of their second year, although in future students will use ECDIS from the beginning. In addition, we take students from other schools in groups of about 14-20 every week. The classroom is available to students most of the time. Outside of their lectures we see students working with Navmaster; and students returning from their 6-month practical period use the system frequently for preparation and presentation.” Nico Booij, senior lecturer, Maritime Institute Willem Barentsz, Terschelling. Navmaster ECDIS for Training is designed to provide a suitable system to organisations which need to deliver generic training in the operational use of ECDIS. It consists of type approved ECDIS software which can be run on standard PCs and networks.
