Hi Deepseacon thanks for confirming the 7 week Fort-William they even include a T4 training course , But until the industry picks up it wont matter what course you do . I am a strong believer in in house training programs as most people still have to provide all there other certs an medicals and every year the list of required certs seems to go up .
7 week course at Fort-William combines the skills and training taught in there 3 week ROV Pilot Technician Course with extensive training in
ROV-contextual electronics
High Voltage and Electrical Safety
Titan 4 Manipulator Training
Fibre Optics â Systems, Integration and with Testing, with option of additional OTDR* training
Working at Height
Experience using our VMAX Triton XL Simulator.
*One day additional OTDR training will incur additional costs
So, as well as the live, industry relevant flying experience and flight support skills you get on the ROV Pilot Technician Course, youâll also gain the practical electronics skills and qualifications youâll need to get your foot in the door of the ROV industry, along with important industry-specific experience and training.
ROV employers require personnel who can maintain and repair the ROV quickly and efficiently, as well as having the operational competencies needed to carry out the job; it can be quite a pressurised role.
The completion of this course will help develop your competency and includes the elements of the basic ROV syllabus in compliance with the requirements of the IMCA competence scheme for ROV personnel.
Next course starting 11th July: SAVE 30% and pay £9177 inc VAT (normally £13110 inc VAT) thereafter £9286 inc VAT for rest of year . http://www.theunderwatercentre.com
I hope this topic will propagate via the web and show up on a search under Rov training but until this current recession is over spending any money on a rov training course in my opinion is a total waste of money .
