1 General

  1.1 It is a requirement of the International Safety Management Code (ISM) that personnel working on assignments related to safety and the protection of the environment need to be given proper familiarization with their duties.

  1.2 To assist with this process it is required that the INS equipment manufacturer or system integrator provides suitable training material that may be used by the ship operator as a basis for onboard familiarization of users.

  1.3 The material is intended to be used by bridge officers who have had generic training in the use of INS through attending shore-based instruction based on the Organization's Model Course 1.32 “Operational use of Integrated Bridge Systems including Integrated Navigation Systems”.

  1.4 The intention of the familiarization material is that it should give a rapid means of understanding the configuration of the INS and its method of operation. General concepts concerning the use of INS are not required to be part of the material, as these would unnecessarily increase the duration of the familiarization training.

  1.5 The material should be organized such that it represents the actual equipment and configuration that is fitted to the ship.
