” Second visit to ECDIS Ltd for different courses, again brilliant instructors with excellent knowledge and a great environment to learn in. Excellent facilities and great classrooms. “
V Ships09/12/2016
” I am very pleased to have completed the course and feel that it will be useful in future survey and vessel inspection work. As a ship surveyor, I believe the course content will be particularly relevant and useful when carrying out surveys and navigational audits. A good balance was delivered especially as some areas required concentration and intake of relatively unfamiliar details. The instructor was able to explain and communicate well. The availability of different makes of ECDIS equipment was an added bonus! “
Nortica Marine Ltd.29/11/2016
” Excellent course well run and instructed. Good variety of equipment. “
Bridger Jones Associates Limited29/11/2016
” Friendly staff, I had to cancel my initial course date due to work commitments, this was no trouble to the staff, and they were very happy to re-book me without any fuss or extra payment. All lectures were well presented and researched. Rob (the Instructor) was able to answer all questions. As an STS Mooring Master I do not use ECDIS for my ship handling, but I now have the skills and confidence to be able to gather the information I need, as opposed to requesting a ships officer. “
Fendercare Marine21/11/2016

” It is thoroughly refreshing to visit a training provider that has captured what customers really want……excellent facilities and equipment, quality complimentary refreshments and snacks but at the same time, and most importantly, delivering a quality course with passion, therefore delivering value for money overall. There are too many providers around nowadays that are quite happy to take people’s money but deliver a sub standard course and facilities and with little knowledge and understanding. “

2016 Seminars
Informative, engaging and wonderful
NYK LNG Shipmanagement (UK) Ltd.3rd May 2016
Very well presented, highlighting the challenges that are still to be addressed with this system and by the people that actually use it.
Cosco Maritime3rd May 2016
Mark and Robyn’s relaxed approach fostered intelligent debating of the issues but they clearly knew the subject inside out. I did find the case studies (accidents, detentions) particularly interesting and came away with the impression that’s their still a great deal to be done to maximise the effectiveness of ECDIS as a navigation tool.
IHS Maritime3rd May 2016
A good interaction between ECDIS Ltd and the ship operators who attended. The press were also welcomed and encouraged to join in thereby learning a lot..
Tanker Operator Magazine3rd May 2016
I found the seminar of great benefit, both Mark Broster and Robyn Harrigan’s presentations and knowledge were excellent. Also the round table informal discussions and lessons learnt from within the maritime industry were invaluable.
Pritchard-Gordon Tankers Ltd3rd May 2016
The best part of the Seminar was an insight into what is taught to the vetting inspectors. The inspectors are a regular feature of our lives onboard and having an understanding of what they are looking for is of great importance to us as we find that the more complex the questioning the more scope there is for the Office.. A good opportunity to meet similar people in similar jobs with similar issues.
