Course Overview:

This Bridge Team Management (BTM) course concentrates on passage planning skills and bridge management techniques. The combination of these essential skills enables the participants to recognise the importance of proper planning, threat assessment, effective communications and good teamwork. Delegates will also learn to identify and break developing error chains, while the issues of incorporating a pilot into the bridge team are also investigated.

 

All simulation exercises are carried out using ECDIS for navigation instead of paper charts, in line with  the paperless Bridge operations undertaken on many vessels today.

 

Our highly experienced instructors provide all the necessary underpinning knowledge before delegates practice a range of operational exercises in the full-mission Bridge simulator to reinforce the theory elements. These simulation exercises use realistic, tested scenarios to optimise the development of course delegates/teams in line with current bridge management practice.  

 

This training programme can be developed in conjunction with clients to provide a more company-orientated course experience, utilising corporate documentation and procedures. This may be further supported by using specific ship or port models, or by constructing appropriate exercises or circumstances.
