Norfolk HallIn Launceston, the survival aspects of our training are carried out in our designated, indoor survival training pool.
The survival pool includes a mock-up of a ship’s superstructure, which is complete with life raft launching facilities, and the ability to be blacked out for simulated night exercises and to create water turbulence, rain, wind noise and simulated storm effects.
Unlike the vast majority of maritime training providers, we have access to our own training ground for the firefighting component of all refresher training.
The firefighting ground is equipped with a wide range of modern firefighting equipment. It includes specialised areas for fighting liquid and gas fires, fires in helicopters, as well as fires within a ship superstructure using self-contained breathing apparatus.
Many providers offer simulated firefighting training, but in our experience there’s nothing like getting hands-on to really refresh your skills.
Ferry company TT-Line, T/A Spirit of Tasmania, are long-term clients of AMC Search. Marine Manager Malcolm Merry shares their experience using our STCW Refresher training services in this video.
We’ve been providing maritime training for over 30 years – and our experience shows. The vast majority of our instructors have extensive seafaring backgrounds, and 98% of the students surveyed reported they were satisfied or very satisfied with the quality of the teaching.
