Training & Education for the ROV Industry
IMCA has published a range of documentation on training issues for the offshore industry, with guidance dedicated to the ROV sector. It does not offer any sort of approval for ROV-related training or certification. However, IMCA Remote Systems & ROV Division training establishment members have access to the full range of IMCA documentation, can participate in its development process and have various opportunities of meeting with other IMCA members to share knowledge and best practice.
Entry Level Requirements & Introductory Course
In January 2000, IMCA published its updated document "Entry level requirements and basic introductory course for remotely operated vehicle (ROV) personnel" (IMCA R 002 Rev 1). Applicable world-wide, this guidance aims to set out the basic entry level requirements for the ROV industry for personnel who have no prior relevant offshore experience and have not completed a basic introductory course for the industry.
Outline Syllabi for ROV-Related Training Courses
IMCA has also published outline syllabi for a variety of ROV-related training courses, including high voltage electricity; lifting operations; rigging and slinging; hydraulic systems; health and safety; and manual handling (IMCA R 010). Click here for further details.
