Description
This one-day training course is designed to give your employees the knowledge and confidence to approach the International Regulations for Prevention of Collision at Sea, commonly referred to as the COLREGs.
Popular among GIS and legal professionals in the maritime sector, this course provides the shortcuts necessary to understand the hierarchies and complexities at work in the COLREGs. This course delivers the best possible starting point for shoreside maritime professionals who need to understand the application of the COLREGs as part of their job.
If your employees have to make sense of the COLREGs, they need a complete overview of the principles at work in the rules. This course will help them avoid the common errors and misconceptions that arise when people refer to isolated sections, without appreciating the bigger picture of the relationship between rules.
