An Inquiry into Simulator Training

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  23 November 2009

Abstract

Since 1975 the Royal Netherlands Naval College has operated a bridge manoeuvring simulator for the training of naval officers and petty officers of the deck department. There is a strong relationship between training objectives and performance abilities of a simulator and the way the two match defines the cost effectiveness and the value of simulator training. The training objective being the result aimed at (for a professional watchkeeper) consists partially of a combination of training subjects (things to be learned at the simulator). During 1980 and 1981 R.Nl.N.C. conducted a survey on simulator training subjects by means of an inquiry amongst Royal Netherland's Navy and Merchant Navy officers, marine lecturers (all of Dutch origin) and members of the International Marine Simulator Forum (IMSF). The results form the subject of this note.
