Proficiency in Designated Security Duties (PDSD) training is carried out by MCA accredited trainers with the highest levels of maritime security experience so when students come to us for maritime security training of any kind they can be sure they are getting the best in the industry.

COURSE OVERVIEW:

The STCW Convention and Code as amended by the Manila amendments (2010) contains new requirements regarding security training. This training is required by all personnel employed or engaged on board ships to which the ISPS Code applies. These Regulations came into force on 1 January 2012. Training in Proficiency in Designated Security Duties (PDSD) must be undertaken by all seafarers & security personnel engaged on ship who have designated duties under the ships security plan.

'Those carrying out personal close protection and/or ship protection duties on ISPS Code compliant ships do not need to hold SSO qualifications unless they are the designated SSO on the vessel in which they are serving. However, as they will be carrying out ships security duties they will have to hold an MCA approved or recognised Certificate of Proficiency in Designated Security Duties.'

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

All seafarers and security personnel who have designated security duties under the Ships Security Plan, including anti-piracy and anti-armed robbery related activities.

Former armed forces personnel looking to move into maritime security who will need this knowledge and certification as a requirement of their position. Also those with a Maritime background looking to work in Ship/Offshore Security.
