In the shipping industry close to 80% of accidents are rooted in human error

Many shipping companies put Masters and Senior Officers through Bridge Team Training and Bridge Resource Management courses; likewise Pilotage Authorities engage in Pilot Resource Management Courses.

Whilst effective individually, the combination of the two has largely been overlooked.

At Longscar Marine we believe that addressing this gap in training is a key element to improving the understanding between the Bridge Team and the Pilot;

A key element towards the reduction of maritime incidents

The course we have developed seeks to close that gap and give Master and Senior Officers a better understanding of the Pilot's requirements and the issues surrounding the Master / Pilot exchange.

The standard course is delivered over two days.

Shorter briefing seminars can also be delivered to coincide with company Master and Officer conferences
