potential of distance learning for education and training,

that fits in with their working life.

accessed via webFTA.

COMPETENCY MATTERS
Seafarer competence impacts on every shipping company, and is a critical factor in ensuring safe, efficient and
cost-effective operation of ships the world over.
COMPLEX TRAINING REQUIREMENTS

As technical developments progress, it is now becoming a legal requirement that seafarer competence is
developed, maintained and above all, recorded. Increasingly, companies need help and advice in getting the best
training solutions to suit their individual requirements, enabling them to build their own Continuous Professional
Development (CPD) programmes.
VIDEOTEL'S CCM PROVIDES THE SOLUTION

technology to provide continuous training and assessment available directly through our webFTA portal.

management of training, assessment and record keeping - online, onboard and onshore.
EMPOWERING COMPANIES TO TAKE CONTROL OF THEIR OWN CPD PROGRAMMES
CCM provides individual companies with competency profiles for seafarers from the beginning of their maritime
career and tracks, monitors and assesses their progression as they move from ship to ship or ship to shore. It is
also the perfect tool to develop CPD programmes.
TOP QUALITY EDUCATION AND TRAINING
The latest multi-media training materials are used to provide a completely blended training approach that can be
accessed online, onboard and onshire. Challenging training with random questions ensure seafarers actually
learn and remember. The ability to study either onboard on onshore allows for flexible learning and the stimulating
learning environment reduces the risk of training becoming no more than a 'tick box' exercise.

CCM - THE BEST TOOL FOR THE FOLLOWING...

PLANNING - with management training tools via webFTA

TRAINING - access to an exhaustive library of blended learning materials - video, CBT, interactive,
courses, onboard drills and company specific training
ASSESSING - tools for continual assessment checks ONBOARD - ONLINE - ONSHORE
