Training
Overview
From scheduled courses run at our dedicated sea trials and training centre in the UK or regional offices, online training and free webinars, to bespoke training courses at your facilities, our training programme is expansive and ever evolving.
Locations
Our in-water training is delivered at our Sea Trials and Training Centre in Plymouth. Training here enables course delegates to better prepare for offshore operations and become confident in how to diagnose and overcome environmental issues.
At our regional training centres you will receive the same excellent instruction, delivered by the professional trainers from Plymouth utilising our very latest version of 6G+ Simulator to drive the product software and mimic real-life environmental conditions.
For our online training we use the same simulator, with remote access via video conferencing, to deliver the course in a modular format. In every online session you will have a trainer there with you, just like in the classroom.
Course sizes
The maximum course size is 6 people (4 for INS courses) for face-to-face training, thus ensuring that attendees get the ideal opportunity to develop their operational skills on our products with expert support from the Trainer. Online practical training is delivered on a 1-to-1 or 2-to-1 basis to give you maximum time on the system.
