Guided Learning Hours: 60 hours
This comprehensive Course concentrates not only on the skills
needed by senior managers at sea, but also includes skills required
by junior officers and acts as a stepping stone towards more formal
management training.
With a wide range of interactive multi-media techniques the
programme includes self-study text, self-assessment, formal
assessments and external monitoring, and certification.
In conjunction with the Nautical Institute (NI) and other
leading authorities, Videotel is delighted to launch this essential
management course, which is:
Comprehensive
50-60 hours of study divided into 37 separate study units in 5
major sections -
- Leaders and Managers
- The Shipping Business
- Managing Yourself
- Managing Tasks
- Working with People.
Easy to use
Each unit provides 1-2 hours of study. Learners work at their own
pace, at sea or ashore.
An accredited qualification...and a toolbox
Complete the course. Submit assignments. Receive a certificate
accredited by The Nautical Institute. Or use single units to
improve specific skills, as and when they are needed.
Varied and active
Study units use a mixture of visuals, graphics, short video
sequences, voice-over and text. Learners interact with the
graphics. They use a screen based 'notepad' to record their
own ideas and relate what they are learning to their own
experience. Each unit ends with a test of comprehension.
Practical
The course provides essential knowledge and useful theory - how the
shipping industry works; what 'culture' is all about, for
example. But the main focus is on 'How to' - how to...
manage your time... run a training session... manage discipline...
run a drill... appraise... communicate in writing.. solve
problems... and many, many more practical, everyday leadership and
management skills.
Shipping focussed
Shipping provides all of the examples used and the visuals and
video sequences which support the content of the study units.
In a multi-national industry drawing personnel from different
national and cultural backgrounds, good management is essential if
shipping is to be safe, well ordered and competitive, giving good
service to customers. At the same time, the people who work within
the industry should have self-esteem and confidence, be efficient
and effective in their work as team members and team leaders, and
in their dealings with third parties. Many young seafarers lack the
confidence needed to become good managers. This course will help
them to achieve success and enjoy their future roles as
managers.
