VSTEP Simulator Classroom for IDESS Maritime Training Center

The IDESS Maritime Training Center in the Philippines purchased a  VSTEP simulator classroom for training of its customers in compliance with international maritime standards and regulations.  The simulators provide IDESS with a high tech tool to enhance their current simulator training and offer customers certified simulator courses in navigation at the IDESS center.  

IDESS is an ISO 9001:2008 Quality Assured company providing  training courses to maritime students and personnel in the Philippines. The classroom purchase by IDESS includes 4 high performance  NAUTIS Desktop Trainers and an Instructor Station to allow the instructor full exercise control during training sessions.

Following the recent scrutiny Philippine seafarers have come under due to the 2013 European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) audits and results, high quality training in compliance with current maritime regulations remains a priority for the leading training centers in the region. The installation of the simulator classroom gives IDESS full capability to provide cost effective training in compliance with the latest STCW and IMO standards.

The classroom was delivered and installed by VSTEP and its Philippine partner Delnet and selected IDESS instructors have received simulator operation training from VSTEP engineers. The new simulators courses will be integrated in the IDESS training curriculum on offer.
