The technological content of many maritime professions is constantly growing and consequently the need for increasingly targeted and timely professional development as well is. The introduction of computer-supported education technologies, often hybridized with phygital approaches, for example in simulators, represents a key way to meet new needs at acceptable costs and, above all, timeframes, without disrupting operations.   

Main topics:

• Simulators for skills updating: beyond the bridge
• Augmented reality in technical updating
• On-the-fly technical courses
• Collaborative tele-operation in maintenance
