Who takes this course

This refresher is for seafarers who already hold a Medical Care certificate issued within the last five years and need to renew it before it lapses. It is aimed at officers designated as the ship's medical officer, not at seafarers taking medical training for the first time.

After the course

Completing this one-day course renews the Medical Care certificate for a further five years, keeping the holder eligible to remain the designated officer in charge of medical care onboard. The same refresher is taken again ahead of each five-year expiry.

Important Notice

Bring CDC, passport, and certificates on the first day.
