What makes our SRL course unique?
Our SRL course is one of the newest and most practical skipper training course in NZ and on successful completion of all course requirements, you will be awarded the New Zealand Certificate in Domestic Maritime Operations.
Take a look at what sets the SiS Training & Consulting course apart from other SRL courses …
In-class TRB Completion
Our course is designed so that you complete your Training Record Book in class with the guidance of your tutor.
Your tutors will then sign off the tasks in your TRB, so you have one less thing to worry about during your sea time requirements.
Guided Learning
You will be paired with a tutor from the time you enrol to help you from start to finish.
We’ve designed a student activity workbook that will help you learn more about your operation and collect diagrams and procedures that you’ll need for your Training Record Book during our block course.
Practical Application
To ensure you get both the theoretical and practical skills to be successful in your new career, we have designed this course for people who would rather be learning on the water. It can’t be all the time, but will be a factor of around 4/5-days of the 5-week block course!
Certain topics such as Radar and Engineering will be introduced in the classroom, which you will then put into practice on a working commercial vessel, or our own maritime diesel and petrol engine training aids. Practical sessions are strategically scheduled to consolidate and assess learning
