American Club launches new MARPOL tool
The American P&I Club announced the release of the final module of its “Clean Seas: Complying with MARPOL 73/78” web-based e-learning tool. The module covers Annex VI of MARPOL 73/78, Prevention of Air Pollution from Ships.
The first module for Annex I (oil pollution) was released in May, 2016. Clean Seas: Complying with MARPOL 73/78 e-learning modules are specifically designed to be “user friendly” for seafarers, and are focused on the practical application of the MARPOL Convention onboard ship.
The club reminds that all e-learning modules are accessible anywhere there is a connection to the internet. This makes it easy and convenient for seafarers to study the subject matter before they join their ships.
The system also includes a secure online testing facility. Operators can track their seafarers’ knowledge and keep up-to-date records of familiarization training in compliance with both the STCW Convention and the company’s safety management system requirements under the ISM Code.
Further details on how to access and use the new module may be found in the following circular:
