Feedback

Lectures and practical exercises were entertaining, interesting, useful. In general, the course helps experienced navigators to gain knowledge. Shows the real level of preparation, and what you need to pay attention to for successful work (ECDIS Awareness and Radar Navigation)

Practical questions, very relevant to the actual use of the equipment (Passage Planning with ECDIS)

The whole organization of education and training is on the decent level (Electrical, Electronic and Control Engineering)
