This course provides information on the generic use of AIS, and is designed for officers in charge of a navigational watch on ships that are fitted with such equipment. Its main aims are to increase safety and security and to protect the environment by giving instruction on the understanding and safe use of such systems, including illustrations of dangerous or improper use.

This model course aims to meet the mandatory minimum requirements for knowledge, understanding and proficiency in table A-II/1 of the STCW Code and takes into account all relevant IMO resolutions and guidelines on AIS available at the time the model course was prepared.

As a specialised agency of the United Nations, IMO is the global standard-setting authority for the safety, security and environmental performance of international shipping. Its main role is to create a regulatory framework for the shipping industry that is fair and effective, universally adopted and universally implemented.

In other words, its role is to create a level playing-field so that ship operators cannot address their financial issues by simply cutting corners and compromising on safety, security and environmental performance. This approach also encourages innovation and efficiency.

Shipping is a truly international industry, and it can only operate effectively if the regulations and standards are themselves agreed, adopted and implemented on an international basis. And IMO is the forum at which this process takes place.
