Supervisor — Water
Supervising guards at a port
Lead a port security shift: brief on ships, level, cargo and weather, lead a level change, audit gates, seals and passes, handle the first minutes of an incident, and keep your team safe near water.
Readiness, not a licence. This course builds knowledge and readiness and ends with a Record of Completion. It is not a government certification and does not by itself grant any licence, authority or regulatory approval.
This is a knowledge course. It is not ISPS Code training and is not recognised by any port or maritime authority.
