Environmental Ship Systems gives you the answers with up to date and relevant information regarding codes and conventions governing the impact of maritime operations on the environment.
This environmental management programme also provides the essential systems and tools required to minimize your ecological footprint while maximizing commercial effectiveness.
Whatever phase of a ships life cycle, from design to disposal, you will be able to provide consulting services to assist your organization.
Due to global warming, change of climate and limited oil resources on earth, our society has developed a new environmental awareness. Although there are a series of legal requirements available for the shipping industry, a company can do more to support positive development.
An environmental management system helps the company to optimize operations and further considerations.
This course will also provide detailed information about the requirements of the standard ISO 14001.
You will acquaint yourself with methods of implementation of an environmental management system in shipping companies and onboard its ships.
You will compare the requirements of ISO 14001 with the ISM Code and will identify synergies with an existing Safety Management System.
Typical problems arising during the implementation and improvement of a management system addressed.
The interaction with the trainer and participants with their own experience from various areas of the shipping industry facilitates the identification of suitable solutions.
Throughout the course, you are guided by our trainers who are well-experienced in implementing and auditing of environmental management systems.
You might be interested in other Engineering programs as a next step.
