THE ADVANTAGES OF STUDYING BY DISTANCE LEARNING
Dear Colleague, As the first international qualification for marine surveyors, Lloyd's Maritime Academy and the National Sea Training Centre have now been educating marine surveyors, potential marine surveyors and associated maritime professionals since 1998. Since the beginning over 1,800 participants from all corners of the world have taken or are currently taking the Diploma in Marine Surveying. The course is designed primarily to support the valuable and important work that marine surveyors around the world carry out and it also aims to help recruit future surveyors, not just from the dwindling number of seafaring professionals, but also from non-seafarers that have the academic ability and an interest in learning about marine surveying. This course provides the knowledge to assist in a person's personal and professional development towards becoming an informed, professional marine surveyor. The maritime world is truly international and in order to give marine surveyors and seafarers every opportunity to study, delivery by distance learning has been chosen because this method eliminates geographical boundaries and barriers. In addition to hard copies, all modules will also be available from the course website. This provides students with the opportunity to interact with other participants on the course in a secure and dedicated environment.
Increasingly we all face more pressures in our business lives. Finding the time to attend courses of any kind can be very difficult and well meant plans are often put aside indefinitely.
The courses have a variety of delivery methods including hard copy, online access or a blend of both enabling access to the material wherever you are in the world.
Distance learning is the solution to your training needs. You can enjoy the full benefits of studying, whilst still in employment using this freedom and flexibility to your advantage.
You will also have access to some interactive learning material that has been developed to complement the course. This includes quiztype questions to test yourself on what you have learnt as well as sections summarising the main content contained in the core modules for easy revision.
If your circumstances or contact details change, all you need to do is inform us the advantages of distance learning are still all yours.
The Diploma in Marine Surveying meets the Continuing Professional Development criteria for the Royal Institution of Naval Architects (RINA), the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST) and is also approved by the Nautical Institute. Successful completion of the course also provides a credit rating towards an Open University undergraduate degree as well as towards the units required to obtain a masters degree at Middlesex University. The Open University offers further study by distance learning and Middlesex University has in place a work-based learning degree programme for successful Diploma candidates. We are confident you will find that this unique Diploma provides you with a level of knowledge and skill that will benefit you and your employer.
Two optional tutorial seminars are also held at the beginning and towards the end of the course providing an opportunity to meet the Course Director, course authors and fellow students.
You can set the pace at which you learn applying the knowledge, skills and expertise gained from the materials to your work straight away.
We look forward to receiving your application to enrol.

OTHER DISTANCE LEARNING COURSES AND FUTURE EVENTS
COURSE DIRECTOR : Paul Russell MSc. BA (Hons) MIMarEST Paul Russell completed a traditional engineering cadetship with Cunard Shipping Services. During his sea-going career he served on all types of ships from passenger ships to super tankers and gained his class one certificate in 1983. His sea service included medium speed engines powering small tankers; slow speed engines driving bulk carriers and a steam plant providing the power for container ships. Paul saw service as assistant to the superintendent during the building of Cunard’s new Ro-Ro ship, the Atlantic Conveyor at Swan Hunter’s shipyard on the River Tyne. After his sea-going career Paul was recruited by the National Sea Training Trust to introduce marine engineering education and training into the college at Gravesend. Subsequently Paul also took charge of the college estates and finances and during this time he studied to obtain a Masters
