The present IMO Model Course is covering the training scope as stated within the IMO Res. A.703(17). The trainees, who have successfully completed all parts of the course and passed the exam, will be considered proficient in operating the shipboard GMDSS equipment. They will be assigned primary responsibility to all communications during the incidents.
Taking into account the huge number of the problems commonly experienced in the subject systems resulting from the false alerts, due attention will be paid to the training covering the avoidance of the unintentional alert transmission as well as on the established procedures to be followed for mitigation of the effects caused by such transmission. The trainees are expected to have some basic knowledge of the shipboard radiocommunication equipment and also have some elementary PC skills.
The course is aimed at the people assigned with the radio duties on board their vessels and participating in the GMDSS communications – they are required to be in possession of the GMDSS certificate satisfying all relevant requirements of the ITU Radio Regulations. All necessary areas of the GMDSS training have been covered within this course.
