Equip your teams with the future of Alternative Fuels

As ammonia and methanol move rapidly from emerging concepts to practical marine fuels, the risks—and the skills required to manage them—are changing just as fast. To help members stay ahead of this transition, we’re proud to introduce two new bespoke training courses developed in partnership with the Nautical Institute and Red Square Medical.

Designed specifically for the realities of shipboard and shoreside operations, these courses provide the critical knowledge and confidence needed to navigate the unique hazards posed by next‑generation fuels.
