IMO MSC 82 Meeting – Role of Human factors in accidents at sea
Deficiencies in maritime education and training for training seafarers for emergency situations
Lack of training in Full mission simulation in emergency situation
Necessity of E-Learning platform for emergency situation
Background research
M’aider (Mayday) Project (Maritime Aids Development for Emergency Responses)
M’aider project will improve safety at sea and ports with a set of training courses based on intelligent scenarios developed for application in full mission simulators as well as in e-learning environment
Introduction
• To improve safety at sea and at ports by identifying emergency situations known so far and create knowledge-based scenarios for training of seafarers at officer level and higher ranks.
• To develop intelligent exercises based on scenarios created for application in full mission simulators.
• To transfer the knowledge that already exists in the form of a software suite together with an existing internet e-learning/assessment to integrate the scenarios

Project Partners
The most frequent emergency situations are identified and
analysed
Maritime Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) accidents
case database is analysed
Gaps and needs of current seafarers and students training
are identified
A Questionnaire developed
Real case scenarios into Bridge simulator training
programmes as well as for e-learning platform are selected
and implemented

Methodology
•Analysis of accident reports
•Analysis of the results of the questionnaire
•Select real accident emergency scenarios
Create scenarios for application on bridge training
and full mission bridge simulators

Chosen emergency case scenarios
8 emergency real case scenarios were chosen for implementation on bridge simulators and on e-learning platformImplementation of a scenario for seafarer training. The scenario was based on a real accidentScot Isles / Wadi Halfa , which happened in 2008 in Dover Strait.

M’aider test sample based on real accident
• What is being done is the transformation of several accident investigation reports into a set of scenarios based on real life cases.
• It is expected that there will be less accidents and incidents which can be very costly in human life, injuries caused and in loss of property.
• The project will also help MET institutions who do not have access to the full- mission simulators by being able to use the e-learning exercises which can be used instead of the full-mission simulator scenarios or to complement them
