2nd Annual ECDIS Revolution Conference
With ECDIS compliance looming in 2012, many vessels will be struggling to make the deadline. Furthermore, although new-built ships and yachts in particular will have been fitted with ECDIS, many operators will not be adequately trained to use the equipment or understand the system and its capabilities. Following on from our previous conference, The ECDIS Revolution will be a 2 day conference, workshop and exhibition designed to highlight and resolve key areas of concern and present possible solutions that will ensure ECDIS compliance is achieved. In addition, there will be a cocktail party at the end of day one of the conference to enable delegates to network and debate in a more informal atmosphere.
