The Maritime Risk - Live Webcast is presented by American Public University and MaritimeProfessional. Participants learn how to overcoming uncertainty and meet compliance standards by empowering individuals. Maritime stakeholders face complex day-to-day challenges. Maintaining a healthy bottom line in the face of a myriad of regulatory, environmental, and operational risks has become job number one. Preventing the loss of vessel and crew from acts of piracy, catastrophic accidents, natural disasters, or the loss of infrastructure resulting in down time – which hinders or suspends essential activities – are just some of the tasks confronting today’s maritime professional.
The Webcast topics include:
* Standards of Training and Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW) Compliance
* Cost-Effective education of the entire maritime workforce
* Utilizing technology to more effectively deliver content
* Optimizing operational efficiency while minimizing vulnerability
This webcast will also include a Q&A session with the speakers:
