Train with Royal Caribbean Ships and Procedures
Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (RCCL), owner of the largest cruise ship in the world Symphony of the Seas, has developed its new maritime training center within the Simwave complex in Rotterdam in recent months. This enables the company to train with their own procedures, their own ships and their own instructors. The connected simulators make it possible for the navigation crew on the bridge to train on the same simulated ship as the technical crew in the engine room.
Simwave
Simwave is a 5000 m2 training center in Rotterdam. Through 59 different simulators, people can be trained for the bridge, engine room and cargo handling.
