OSC’s JNCC-approved MMO course includes lectures and discussion in an intensive one-day training course. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the courses will temporarily be provided online, and when possible, in person at OSC’s headquarters in Dunbar, Scotland where it will include practical elements of binocular and range estimation training at Dunbar Harbour, as well as practical role-play sessions.Our instructors are highly experienced MMOs, and will be delighted to help you achieve your career goals.
