Hanseatic, with the assistance of its Principals set up a training facility with a full mission Engine Simulator, the ERS 4000. The simulator is compliant to the requirements set out in the revised STCW’95, with a scope of training objectives, which corresponds to the specifications of standard competence for engine department personnel based on IMO courses 2.07, 2.08, 7.02 and 7.04.
The Engine Simulator is also compliant with SOLAS / STCW / IMO / ISO conventions, recognized by the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) and the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) for the seafarers evaluation and issuance of the corresponding certification.
The Engine Simulator facility is accredited by the Maritime Training Council (MTC) to offer Engine Room Simulator (ERS) courses and by the PRC offering practical assessment for licensure examinations.
Joint functionality between the bridge and engine simulators allows for a total ship simulation environment, combining the training of engineering and deck personnel in a single exercise. This in turn strengthens coordination and efficiency between the engine room and bridge.
