Brief History

504/21/23 CERONAV

1975 - The Merchant Marine Training Centre (CCEMMP) is established as a public institution, following Orders nos. 1096 and 1058 of the Ministry of Transportation and Telecommunications, in an attempt to meet the vocational education and training requirements of merchant marine personnel.

1983 - Following Order number 491, the Centre changes its name to CIPLMC, incorporating the Galati unit – River Personnel Training Centre as affiliate.

1990 - The Centre incorporates the Merchant Marine Vocational Education Centre.

604/21/23 CERONAV

1992 - The Centre becomes CPPMC – Training Centre for Merchant Marine and Harbour Personnel.

2003 - Following the Government Ordinance 33/2003 and Government Decision 449/2003 the Centre merges with Galati River Training Centre, formerly set up as public institution by the Order no. 1033/1990 and becomes CERONAV extending its activity to training of river personnel.

704/21/23 CERONAV

CERONAV currently organizes about 2,000 training, specialization and qualification classes in 80 different specialties, for approximately 32,000 trainees per year.

Over 90% of our graduates are employed by international shipping companies certifying the high level of training provided by CERONAV by highest applicable international standards.

Trainees acquire practical skills in dedicated labs, where they have access to late-generation simulators for navigation, communications, naval equipments and tanker cargo handling equipments.

DEDICATED CLASSROOMS2504/21/23 CERONAV

The fire fighting dedicated classrooms have the following facilities:

Smart board Beamer and screen Videorecorder Fire fighting outfits Fire extinguishers SCBA Other facilities

2604/21/23 CERONAV

TRAINING CAMPUS2704/21/23 CERONAV

The CERONAV's fire-fighting facility provides a very realistic, but safe, enviroment in which the trainee can learn all the tehniques of fire fighting at sea.

Here, the fire (of small or medium dimensions) can be simulated in the four storey steel ship modules for the smoke and fire drills .

2804/21/23 CERONAV

It can be done either outside or inside of the modules, which replicates a vessel like disposal .

The fire can be initiated in 3 different places and one of the modules can be complete flooded with mechanical foam.

ENGINE ROOM SIMULATOR

3204/21/23 CERONAV

ERS 4000: Training to STCW and beyond

The Transas Engine Room simulator ERS 4000 is intended for education, training and assessment of competence of engine department personnel – engineer officer in charge of watch, second and chief engineer, ratings forming part of engineering watch:

Familiarisation Standard operation and watch

keeping Advanced operation and

troubleshooting Vessel resource management

3304/21/23 CERONAV

Simulator Components

Trainee Software – replica of structure and hierarchy of ship’s real control system:

Monitoring and automatic or manual remote control from bridge

Monitoring and automatic or manual remote control from Machinery Control Room (MCR)

Monitoring and semi-automatic or manual local control from Local Operation Posts (LOP) in ship’s compartments

System monitoring and system manual local control from ship’s compartments

3404/21/23 CERONAV

Simulator Components

The following systems are imitated:

Ship’s diesel propulsion plant

Auxiliary systems and machinery

Ship’s electric power plant Machinery sound imitation Alarm systems with Sound

& Visual Alarm Unit 3D visualization for tanker

LCC, LNG, Ro-Ro

3504/21/23 CERONAV

The simulator module is designed for the training of watch keeping personnel in the correct operation of the ship’s auxiliary machinery and systems including:

Preparation and putting into operation of machinery and systems; Monitoring of their operation by the measured parameters with the

assistance of the alarm system; Troubleshooting procedures. In addition to the training of practical skills, the simulator allows

familiarisation with fundamentals of the structure, functioning and interaction of the elements and subsystems.

The set of the simulated systems complies with the currently accepted ship standard.

Parameters and performance characteristics of the modelled machinery and systems correspond to the actual ones, as the simulator models all the principal processes (thermodynamic, mechanic, gas and hydrodynamic, electrical) in their interrelation.

Conclusions

5004/21/23 CERONAV

In Romania seafarers refresh their IMO Courses every 5 years at Ceronav

Ceronav will kindly ask IMO to recommand refresh practice be done in maritime training centers only and not on board vessels as the practice is in other countries

More practice and less theory
