Contents of the Course
The Advanced Navigation is intended to help all Masters and Deck Officers refresh their skills in conducting safe and prudent navigation, and allowing them to enhance skills within the BTM concept, to ensure that risk of human error is minimized. This training course is practical and theoretical and consists of a series of exercises performed on a ship handling simulator with one or more own ship and a number of others controlled by the instructor. Attention will be given to such items as passage planning, bridge organization and procedures, use of radar/ARPA/ECDIS and the management of the human resources which make up the Bridge Team. The work of planning, executing and reviewing simulated transits is designed to heighten the awareness that will reduce the potential for human error.
