Simulation and training solutions provider W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 Voyage and knowledge and technology solutions provider Ocean Technologies Group (OTG) say they have partnered in an effort to enhance safety and efficiency in the maritime sector.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With complementary converging digital technologies and platforms, W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 Voyage and OTG will provide industry stakeholders an opportunity to be connected on a single end-to-end learning journey, combining on-demand digital training and assessment, virtual and simulation events via cloud-based solutions, and in-person learning experiences at maritime training centers or aboard ship.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cEffective use of Smart Marine technology by mariners and shore staff is a critical component of its successful implementation and ensures a smooth transition from traditional methods of operation,\u201d said Sean Fernback, President, W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 Voyage. \u201cBy leveraging our combined smart learning technologies and mariner performance optimization services, industry can achieve the desired outcome of operating with more efficient, safer, and environmentally aware mariners who are properly equipped to perform in a rapidly changing, digitized maritime industry.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Initially the partnership makes W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 Voyage\u2019s Cloud Simulation services and training catalogue available through OTG\u2019s Ocean Learning Platform. The combined customer pool of more than 3,000 shipping companies and training centers, plus well over a million seafarers, will be able to access W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 training, assessment and certification on an \u2018on-demand\u2019 basis, any time, and from anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In addition, learning, competence management and instructional tools provided by the Ocean Learning Platform, including solutions such as OTG\u2019s virtual classroom and rapid e-learning, industry will be presented with a broad and comprehensive range of maritime specific digital learning solutions.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Manish Singh, Ocean Technology Group\u2019s CEO, said, \u201cOur objective is to equip seafarers and users, with the most relevant knowledge and resources, not only in a training centre, but also online and at point of operation onboard ships and other sites. Our partnership with W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 makes \u2018on-demand\u2019 access to cloud simulation and type-specific training and technical resources available to seafarers and shore-based personnel, helping them gain proficiency in safely and efficiently operating sophisticated W\u00e4rtsil\u00e4 equipment.\u201d<\/p>\n
