NOVIKONTAS TRAINING CENTER - ONLINE DYNAMIC POSITIONING INDUCTION TRAINING COURSE

ONLINE DYNAMIC POSITIONING INDUCTION TRAINING COURSE (as ONLY part of induction course from NI DP training schema)

Target group

This training course is designed and developed for seafaring personnel intending to become DP operators.

This Course is first part of the Induction training course and allowing participant receive theoretical knowledge and receive the DP Log Book with tasks to join the DP vessel and start familiarization part of the training 60 day on board. After successfully pass of the ONLINE part of the induction course and collected DP experience, participant arriving to Training center for practical part of the Induction course + Online Test, after this He/She may continue with DP Simulator/Advance course.

This course approved by Nautical Institute Ltd. UK

Objectives of the course

Those who successfully complete this course should have acquired a knowledge of the principles of Dynamic Positioning, be able to set up a Dynamic Positioning system and have an understanding of the practical operation of associated equipment, including position reference systems. Trainees should be able to recognize and respond to the various alarms, warning and information messages. Trainees should also be able to relate the DP installation to the ship system, e.g. power supply, maneuvering facility, available position reference systems and nature of work. Trainees should also be able to relate DP operations to the existing environmental conditions of wind, sea state, current and vessel movement.
