Crowd Management

Mandatory for Masters, officers, qualified ratings, and other personnel designated on muster lists to assist passengers inemergencies on passenger ships, this training addresses the unique challenges that can arise when dealing with largecrowds in confined spaces at sea.

These scenarios could include situations such as ship evacuations, fires, or other emergencies where maintaining order and ensuring passenger safety is paramount. The Crowd Management course covers a wide range of topics, including crowd behavior psychology, communicationtechniques, and effective crowd control strategies.

Seafarers learn how to guide passengers to assembly stations, deploy life-saving equipment, and initiate evacuation procedures when necessary. Moreover, STCW Regulation V/2 (7), A-V/2 (3) underscores the importance of this training in maritime safety and emphasizes the critical role personnel providing direct service to passengers play in emergency response. They must be well-prepared to handle emergency situations confidently and efficiently.


Furthermore, this course is also mandated for all personnel providing direct services to passengers in passenger spaces on board passenger ships, as stipulated by STCW Regulation V/2 (6), A-V/2 (2). It ensures that individuals responsible for passenger safety within the ship's interior are adequately trained and equipped to handle emergencies.


In conclusion, the STCW Crowd Management online course is essential for seafarers to handle emergency situations
involving large crowds on board passenger ships. It not only fosters preparedness but also ensures that personnel
responsible for passenger safety are well-versed in crowd management techniques and equipped to respond effectively during critical moments at sea. Complying with these regulations and completing this training is fundamental in maintaining the highest standards of maritime safety and security.


The STCW Crowd Management online course plays a critical role in ensuring the safety and security of passengers and
crew members on board ships, particularly during emergency situations involving large crowds.

This comprehensive training program is designed to equip seafarers with the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively manage and assist passengers in such scenarios while also familiarizing them with essential safety and emergency equipment.
