The Green Curriculum Training Standard

The Nautical Institute’s Green Curriculum sets out what we believe seafarers need to know in order to handle novel fuels safely, and what those responsible for introducing the fuels need to know when making decisions about their use.

Even before COP26 in October 2021, The Nautical Institute was already asking questions surrounding the issue of alternative fuels. It was clear to us that there needed to be a considered approach to training and familiarisation for these novel fuels. As the world’s leading organisation of maritime professionals, we were well placed to promote best practice in the establishment of training standards for seafarers to handle these green fuels safely, and offer insights and updates on the implementation of these changes.
