Ship Simulator and Bridge Teamwork

is a maritime training course designed to enhance navigational competence and teamwork skills through the use of full-mission ship bridge simulators. The course focuses on the practical application of navigational knowledge in realistic scenarios that reflect everyday operations and emergency situations at sea.

Training emphasizes effective bridge teamwork, including communication, leadership, situational awareness, and decision-making. Participants practice voyage planning, ship handling, collision avoidance, and emergency response while working as part of a bridge team. The use of simulators allows trainees to experience complex traffic situations, restricted visibility, and adverse weather conditions in a controlled environment. Upon completion, participants are better equipped to operate safely and efficiently as part of a bridge team, in compliance with international maritime standards and best practices.
