Course Description

This course is designed for maritime employees who will be introduced to the basic concepts of the Crew Endurance Management System in a 4 hour presentation that includes a discussion exercise in small groups, a presentation by the group in the classroom. The 24/7 nature of maritime operations (be they commercial, military or governmental) exposes crewmembers to a number of risk factors that can degrade crew endurance (that is, the physical stamina and mental alertness of the crew)

Students are provided with an in-depth Crew Endurance Management Workbook.  The purpose of this workbook is to provide an overview of the CEMS system and provide tips on how you can improve your endurance at work and in your personal life. Succesful completion will quailif students for the USCG CEMS COACH designation.
