Course Description  

Human factors are almost always considered to be a contributory factor leading to accidents at sea. This five day course covers resource management, leadership and team working skills at management level so that the candidates can apply these ‘soft skills’ to manage crews in their respective departments and overcome ‘human factor’ related issues.

The course is designed in line with the STCW Code Tables A-II/1, A-III/1 and A-III/6 and is a pre-requisite for management level CoCs (Masters, Chief officers, chief and second engineers) and therefore must be undertaken before a CoC can be issued.

An outline of topics covered in the MNTB standard for HELM M course is:

• Good practice in shipboard human resource management.
• Relevance of the ‘human element’ in shipboard operations.
