Marlink has partnered with Mintra to offer its customers seafarer training onboard vessels.

Mintra has joined Marlink’s application partner programme and its safety training courses will be delivered with offline capability directly to seafarers via their vessel’s IT network or through the cloud.

It will give seafarers access to more than 300 compliance-based eLearning courses developed for maritime in Mintra’s Trainingportal, which some 2,600 courses in total.

These include an offline version of type-specific manufacturer approved ECDIS and fully online STCW-compliant courses, exclusive to Mintra.

“Our unique technology designed with the maritime sector in mind, together with high quality user experience and content, allows our customers to develop competent and compliant crew in a more efficient and cost-effective manner,” said Mintra CCO Kjetil Flood.

“Customers using Mintra’s solution typically report a 30% cost reduction in learning and development while retaining compliance. With the system available in both online and offline formats to address limited connectivity at sea, customers have an assurance that training can take place anytime, anywhere.”
