NSW MARITIME
(WATERWAYS) AUTHORITY has appointed the college trainers
as ‘Accredited Boat Licence Testers’ and the new ‘NSW
BOAT LICENCE TRAINING’ as a method of obtaining a general ‘power-boat’
licence or general young adult licence..
The Full Training, including a practical
component, is four units of the OUTDOOR RECREATION INDUSTRY TRAINING PACKAGE
which include the standards of the National Maritime Safety Committee (NMSC).
Full skipper training generally runs over 1.5 days in our training centres.
On successful completion students receive a statement of attainment which
will be exchanged for a general (power-boat) licence when presented to a
NSW Maritime Authority Customer Service Office and on payment of the licence
fee for 1 or 3 years. No further testing is required.
" FULL TRAINING ALSO INCLUDES MANY PRACTICAL SEAMANSHIP
TIPS AND SKIPPER TRAINING OUT ON THE WATER IN THE COLLEGE VESSEL AT A TOTAL
COST OF $175 PER PERSON .
Students are only enrolled in a course or seminar with the college when
fees have been paid in advance.
Family Safety
We encourage all people new to the boating industry to come along as a
family and learn basic training. Over the last 4 years more people are opting
for training through a Registered Training Organisation to ensure that they
have the basics in place for the safety of family and friends on the water.
Boating Safety
The Maritime Authority and the College remind all recreational boaties
that it is the experience gained in a variety of conditions that will develop
skill, competence, awareness and confidence on the water.
New 'Boaties'
New 'boaties' are advised to gain accredited training before going on the
water. Many people choose to do the NSW Boating College training as a preparation,
even before purchasing a boat and/or marine safety equipment.
People new to boating are encouraged
to complete approved training
and get the full benefit of the
new skills required to help keep you and your family and friends safe on
the water.
