CONTINUING

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

This course meets The Royal Institution of

Naval Architects (RINA) requirements for

Continuing Professional Development.

The Diploma in Marine Surveying is

recognised by the Institute of Marine

Engineering, Science and Technology

(IMarEST) as contributing to the

Continuing Professional Development (CPD)

needs of members of the IMarEST.

Dear Colleague,

As the first international qualification for marine surveyors, Lloyd's Maritime Academy and the National Sea Training Centre

have now been educating marine surveyors, potential marine surveyors and associated maritime professionals since 1998.

Since the beginning over 1,800 participants from all corners of the world have taken or are currently taking the Diploma in

Marine Surveying.

The course is designed primarily to support the valuable and important work that marine surveyors around the world carry

out and it also aims to help recruit future surveyors, not just from the dwindling number of seafaring professionals, but also

from non-seafarers that have the academic ability and an interest in learning about marine surveying. This course provides

the knowledge to assist in a person's personal and professional development towards becoming an informed, professional

marine surveyor.

The maritime world is truly international and in order to give marine surveyors and seafarers every opportunity to study,

delivery by distance learning has been chosen because this method eliminates geographical boundaries and barriers.

In addition to hard copies, all modules will also be available from the course website. This provides students with the

opportunity to interact with other participants on the course in a secure and dedicated environment.

The Diploma in Marine Surveying meets the Continuing Professional Development criteria for the Royal Institution of

Naval Architects (RINA), the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST) and is also

approved by the Nautical Institute.

Successful completion of the course also provides a credit rating towards an Open University undergraduate degree as well

as towards the units required to obtain a masters degree at Middlesex University. The Open University offers further study by

distance learning and Middlesex University has in place a work-based learning degree programme for successful Diploma

candidates.

We are confident you will find that this unique Diploma provides you with a level of knowledge and skill that will benefit you

and your employer.

We look forward to receiving your application to enrol.

THE ADVANTAGES OF STUDYING BY

DISTANCE LEARNING

Increasingly we all face more pressures

in our business lives. Finding the time

to attend courses of any kind can be

very difficult and well meant plans are

often put aside indefinitely.

Distance learning is the solution to

your training needs. You can enjoy

the full benefits of studying, whilst

still in employment using this

freedom and flexibility to your

advantage.

If your circumstances or contact

details change, all you need to do is

inform us  the advantages of distance

learning are still all yours.

Two optional tutorial seminars are also

held at the beginning and towards

the end of the course providing an

opportunity to meet the Course

Director, course authors and fellow

students.

The courses have a variety of delivery

methods including hard copy, online

access or a blend of both enabling

access to the material wherever you

are in the world.

You will also have access to some

interactive learning material that

has been developed to complement

the course. This includes quiztype

questions to test yourself on what

you have learnt as well as sections

summarising the main content

contained in the core modules for

easy revision.

You can set the pace at which

you learn applying the knowledge,

skills and expertise gained from

the materials to your work straight

away.

COURSE SYLLABUS

Tutor marked assignments form the assessed coursework for the whole course and count towards a maximum of 40% of a Diploma

ACCREDITING AND SUPPORTING BODIES

COURSE DIRECTOR :

Paul Russell MSc. BA (Hons) MIMarEST

Paul Russell completed a traditional engineering cadetship with Cunard Shipping

Services. During his sea-going career he served on all types of ships from passenger

ships to super tankers and gained his class one certificate in 1983. His sea service included medium

speed engines powering small tankers; slow speed engines driving bulk carriers and a steam plant

providing the power for container ships. Paul saw service as assistant to the superintendent during

the building of Cunard’s new Ro-Ro ship, the Atlantic Conveyor at Swan Hunter’s shipyard on the

River Tyne.

After his sea-going career Paul was recruited by the National Sea Training Trust to introduce marine

engineering education and training into the college at Gravesend. Subsequently Paul also took

charge of the college estates and finances and during this time he studied to obtain a Masters

degree in Educational Management at the University of Greenwich. In 1996 Paul was appointed

as Head of School at the National Sea Training Centre at North West Kent College.
