34 Maritime Reporter & Engineering News ? MARCH 2013 TRAININGVessel Speci Þ c Training Via Adaptive Learning Experience Cost-effective It is difÞ cult and expensive to do vessel-speci Þ c training well. This is probably why, unlike certiÞ cation training, it is under speci Þ ed, and in many cases poorly imple- mented - often via job shadowing. But there is a technology which is an excellent tool for vessel-speciÞ c training, and every vessel operator should be aware of it. It is called adaptive learning. This article describes adaptive learning and examines one vessel operator?s deployment of it in order to facilitate vessel-speci Þ c training across its ß eet of 35 vessels.
