Our update courses run on set dates and require 100% attendance.

The full update course duration for the mandatory STCW Basic Safety Training elements requiring updating is three days with Allabroad Maritime Academy. A fourth day can be added to meet the separate requirements for updating of First Aid certification for under EU member state flagged vessels legislation.

The STCW Fire Prevention & Fire Fighting element requires that you have remained competent at wearing breathing apparatus and taken part in regular fire drills onboard ship, this should be documented officially. Our updating course is over the two days to give those who have not met these workplace requirements a greater grounding on which to succeed on the Wednesday's hot drill day. Thursday is the STCW Personal Survival Techniques and once again it is a full day to give you the background of survival at sea before taking to the pool for the life raft wet drills in immersion suits and life jackets.

You are not to be on active duty or on call duty ten hours before the start of the course and for ten hours after the end of the course. This is for your own safety, the safety of the other delegates and lectures and the safety of your workplace colleges too.
