Earlier this summer, Project Manager Darrin Pock TSSP conducted some field training with RWICs Javier Virgen, Lino Ayala, and Joseph Vega, demonstrating proper body mechanics and safety checks while using a switch.
Great work, team – we’re grateful for your dedication to providing the safest possible service to our clients.

At the CBB program at The Landing School we work in developing the manual skills required to work whit marine composites as well as work on the soft skills such as proper communication and team management, here one of our students is acting as the team leader and is reviewing whit the “team” the steps of the procedure . #boatbulding#composites
The offshore oil and gas industry should listen to Capt Anthony Patterson of Virtual Marine when it comes to the safety training and competence of lifeboat coxswains globally!!
I don't mind saying, that (conventional) lifeboat coxswain training methodology via lifeboat in water, does not reflect the offshore industry's needs or environment, so why is this type of training still acceptable? The conventional training is simply not good enough now, or relative to what offshore lifeboat coxswains can expect during an offshore emergency evacuation via their Life-Saving Appliances. That is a fact! There are better training methods available and for non-seafarers to be given such a responsibility to launch and operate a life-saving appliance and be responsible for the safety of all onboard, then the best training methodology, tools, and technology should be the primary training given and not a minimum training standard, especially for those learners who are not seafarers!!
The IMO has changed the Model Course 1.23 Proficiency in Survival Craft and Rescue Boats Other Than Fast Rescue Boats by accepting simulation for Initial Lifeboat Coxswain training.
The Offshore Industry Training Standards should follow the IMO lead and allow the (initial lifeboat Coxswains) to be carried out via simulators. The benefits of simulator training far outweigh that of conventional training.
Can the learners experience launching at night during conventional training? No
Can the learners experience launching in Adverse weather conditions? No
Can the learners experience boat handling in high-sea states? No
Can all of the above be experienced via a simulator? Yes
Do learners practice radio communications during conventual training? No
Do learners get the opportunity to launch multiple times? No
Do learners get to see the real benefits of pyrotechnics? No
Do learners get the opportunity to experience realistic emergency evacuation scenarios? No
Do the learners experience all the above via a simulator? Yes
Is training via a simulator safer? Yes
Is a simulator a greener training methodology than conventional training? Yes
Is a simulator more realistic to the offshore environment? Yes
Is a simulator more of an immersive experience than conventional training? Yes
Do the simulators meet all the performance criteria required by the industry minimum training standards? They supersede the requirements!!
Training via simulators is more relevant to the environment the learners work in, compared to training in a boat in calm waters that is not realistic or conducive to the environment that can be expected in an offshore environment during an emergency evacuation incident.

I share the science of how adults learn to help save lives.
I’m looking forward to sharing how you can leverage game-based strategies to improve engagement and retention at the Iowa Motor Truck Association on Thursday.
The science of how we learn is my passion. 🔥 Grounded on decades of research on how our brains respond and process information, my presentation tips might just awaken your mind to new possibilities! 🧠 #ilovelearning#learningdonebetter
#qualification#safety — yet another successful course on behalf of Deutscher Alpenverein e.V.
The second 4.5 day introduction to routesetting in the updated DAV routesetting qualification system was a success. In a diverse team of motivated aspiring setters of safety relevant infrastructure for gym customers we worked our way through the various challenging aspects of this forming craft of routesetting on artificial climbing walls.
We provide a safe space for learning: From fundamentals of work safety and product safety, including knowledge of regulatory frame, in depth material and tool command - to specifics of our industry such as judgement of fit for purpose (e.g. moves & grades / fit for target audience) esthetics & creativity.
Every person assembling at height infrastructure, the safety of the climbing / bouldering community depends on, should know and safely command what this first of three consecutive courses is about. Level 1 allows you to safely & responsibly set boulders. Level 2 & 3 add on qualifications for setting on walls with protection points according to EN 12572 standard.
