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. “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.” Navmaster ECDIS for Training being used at the Maritime Institute Willem Barentsz.

“Most of our course delegates have already used an ECDIS and it takes them a little while to re-align this with the way Navmaster works. But Navmaster is designed to the standard Windows user interface and its buttons and icons have meaning. The delegates use their PC experience and soon find Navmaster to be very straightforward, easy to follow and with no hidden glitches. As an instructor I find the menus and commands in Navmaster are almost intuitive. It is a great system which seems to comply completely with the IMO standards. The flexibility it offers me as an instructor is very good and...
