Looking for Maritime Training?

We Can Help

You will learn ECDIS as a tool in support of navigation while using all systems. I offer a number of techniques that build competence and confidence without dependencies; the principle is to preserve the safety of navigation even while practicing.

New to Maritime Training?

ECDIS navigation integrates many skills. You should already be strong in at least 50% of these:

Terrestrial & coastal navigation
Electronic Navigational Charts (ENCs)
Vessel maneuvering and piloting
Radar & ARPA operation
Enav (GPS, AIS, Gyro, speed log, sounder)
Basics of Bridge Resource Management
Mid-level skills in computers

Learn about basic training

ECDISTraining

My ECDIS course is the original USCG-approved course (2001). I wrote the STCW training standards for ECDIS for the Manila Amendments (2010).

My course is the source for IMO’s MC 1.27 (2012). I built my invention of ECDIS training on the sciences of underway watch standing and how adults can learn to competently integrate new technologies.

You will learn ECDIS as a tool in support of navigation while using all systems. I will teach you how to apply the tools for visual watch standing.
