Description

The Short Range Certificate is the minimum qualification required by law to control the operation of VHF and VHF Digital Selective Calling (DSC) equipment on any British flagged vessel voluntarily fitted with a radio. This includes both fixed and hand held equipment using International channels.

A radio is an important piece of safety equipment on board and it is vital to understand the correct procedures. Unnecessary transmissions could block out a Mayday distress call.

Course topics include:

the basics of radio operation

the correct frequencies (channels) to be used

distress, emergency and medical assistance procedures

making ship to shore communication

Digital Selective Calling (DSC) using simulators

Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS)
