SUMMARY |
|
|
Pilotage is a complex profession, often little understood by port
management and ship’s personnel as well as the general public.
This course will reveal and explain in detail the many and varied
disciplines that are involved in the piloting of ships.
If you are an experienced mariner, then some of the subjects
covered within this 3-day course will be familiar whilst others may
not. If you do not have an extensive maritime background, then the
variety of subjects addressed may come as a surprise. In accord
with IMO resolution A960, the course will give you a broad
knowledge and understanding of the underlying varied and often
complex disciplines at the core of the maritime pilotage profession.
This knowledge and theoretical training alone will not be enough to
give the levels of expertise required to practice those skills. That
can only be acquired through actual real life (“on the job”)
experience along with specialized learning and practical training
specific to the port environment the individual pilot works in.
Pilots and pilot operators often work in specific ports and/or areas
and may not be aware of developments within the industry that are
occurring in other ports or countries. Participants will be
encouraged to share and discuss their own experiences, thoughts
and concerns about the profession.
