International Maritime Services (IMS), an experienced maritime operating and training services organisation provides training services to maritime crews. A Training Needs Analysis (TNA) is conducted to confirm the exact training requirements and the tailored training is provided to all crew and can be delivered at our training facility in Fremantle, Western Australia or at an overseas venue chosen by the operator The knowledge and skills delivered in the familiarisation and operator training is complimented by the Ship's Information Book (Craft Operating and Maintenance Manuals) and the operational and damage control procedures.
The proposed training solutions take into consideration that the crew are often required to continue operational activities at a significant tempo in parallel with the introduction of their new vessels. Our training experience allows us to design a phased training program that minimises disruption to operations during the transition period. The conduct of training courses is in accordance with the ship delivery schedule and coordinated to ensure the crew has a minimum transition time between ceasing operations on their outgoing craft and resuming operations on the craft.
The IMS training solution is based on sound instructional design and delivery techniques, featuring a blended approach that optimises classroom theory with practical on-the-job training. Where possible, the practical components utilise the actual vessel that the crew will be operating. This approach minimises the risk of training delays and reduces operational downtime.
Training design and development focuses on how best to achieve the training outcomes in the learning environment. This process includes a review of the current crew training materials in order to develop tailored course materials for face-to-face training by maritime instructors. Course materials developed includes a course map, session plans, student materials, instructor materials, practical activities and assessment materials. Where possible, course materials are actual ship's operating and maintenance documentation.
