We verify that your simulator system complies with STCW 78 as amended and our DNV-ST-0033 Maritime Simulator Systems standard.
The STCW (Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping) convention requires the approval of simulators when used for mandatory simulator-based training or when used as a means to demonstrate competence.
The purpose of the DNV standard is to ensure that the simulations provided by the simulator achieve an appropriate level of physical and behavioural realism. This is necessary for meeting recognised training and assessment objectives.
When in compliance with the DNV-ST-0033 Maritime Simulator Systems standard, a manufacturer may receive a Statement of Compliance once our experts have assessed and approved the design and performance of the simulator.
In equal measure, simulator centres or other parties who use simulators to meet defined objectives may apply for product certification to demonstrate that their installation meets the requirements.
Our certification of maritime simulator systems applies to:
