Engine Room Simulator Management Course (ERS-M) in Kerala (Kochi)

The Marine Engine Room Simulator (ERS-M), an advanced training program, is designed to meet STCW standards. The ERS-M course has been specifically developed for marine engineers holding MEO Class IV Certificates. The five-day course provides marine engineers/machine operators opportunities to develop their skills regarding real-time operation, supervision, and control of ship systems in a simulated/virtual environment. The ERS-M course builds on previously gained skills and knowledge as a marine engineer/machine operator develops through increased levels of authority and responsibility, thereby further enhancing their sea-going support. Thus, the ERS-M course teaches Marine Engineers/Machine Operators necessary competencies to successfully complete required duties in the engine room, such as watchkeeping, problem-solving, decision-making, and managing their own personal safety when working onboard ships and will ultimately provide the base for advancing to more significant responsibilities/authorities in the Engine Room.
