Introduction

The Club's e-Learning tools are specifically designed to be "user friendly" for seafarers and office personnel on relevant safety and environmental protection related topics. All modules are accessible wherever there is a connection to the Internet, or through the shipboard Plug and Play system, thus making it easy and convenient for seafarers to study the subject matter before they join their ships. The system also includes a secure online testing facility.

Members can track their seafarers' knowledge and keep up-to-date records of familiarization training in compliance with the STCW Convention, environmental regulations and the company's safety management system requirements under the ISM Code.

All e-Learning tools and aids are free of charge to Club Members and available in English, new and traditional Mandarin languages and can be accesssed by Club Members, free of charge.

The Club's e-Learning tools were developed in cooperation with IDESS Interactive Technologies (IDESS IT) Inc. in Subic Bay, Philippines. For non-Members, these tools are available for purchase from IDESS IT, Inc. via their website at https://www.idess-it.com/
