Leading eLearning provider OneLearn Global (OLG), member of OneCare Group, has launched its new training project providing crews with the expertise and assurance required in complying with the new SIRE 2.0 ship inspection procedures.
The project ‘Mastering Sire 2.0: A Comprehensive Guide to Inspections’ will ensure crews are equipped with the guidance to follow best practices during inspection, enhancing the safety and efficiency of tanker vessel operations.
Sire 2.0, which is due to go live this September, will future-proof the tanker inspection process in line with evolving risks, technology and expertise. The digitalised inspection programme will transform how inspections are conducted and will support industry efforts to continuously enhance safety.
OLG’s immersive learning experience will provide crew members with the opportunity to experience training in a virtual manner through 360-degree images that includes various life-like scenarios and levels. This practical method strengthens knowledge retention and deepens understanding of inspection complexities, effectively equipping individuals for their onboard activities.
Malevi Manenti, Learning Solutions Programme Manager at OLG said: “Our collaboration with industry experts, combined with our eLearning proficiency, has resulted in a training solution that sets new standards in maritime education.
“By actively participating in their learning process, crew members gain hands-on experience, make critical decisions, and understand the consequences of their actions. This gamified approach enhances knowledge retention and fosters a deeper understanding of the complexities involved in inspections.”
Throughout the duration of the 15-hour course, learners will receive tailored course content depending on their ranks and vessel types, enabling a personalised approach. This interactive course includes all the VIQ (Vessel Inspection Questionnaire) questions supported by detailed Guidance, correlation with the Company Procedures and insights on the Inspectors’ actions. This comprehensive structure will ensure that crew members are well prepared for any queries that inspectors may have in real-life scenarios.
