About four years ago Vroon Offshore Services Genoa implemented the Crew Competence Management system, a tool designed to enhance the continuous professional development of our Crewing colleagues. The Genoa team is now working on updating the system with additional fleet-specific requirements. To this end, we are pleased to announce that we are cooperating with Global Maritime Sp. to integrate a Dynamic Positioning (DP) competence in the existing Competence Management system.
This integrated development tool will enable assessment of DP-specific competences, ensuring continuous improvement of development plans. It will facilitate a shift from a compliance-based culture to an awareness-centred culture, implementing best practices from the International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA) and Offshore Vessel Management and Self Assessment (OVMSA) personnel-development guidelines.
