Valuable time spent getting into things that hopefully you will never encounter in the real world but should your luck run out you have that experience to fall back on. I know this works, or at least that simulation training works I was in telecommunications and we would do a similar thing and go to Ohio to where they had simulators for all the telecommunications switching offices and they would implement failures and we would have to trouble shoot and find the failed component(s) or configure the equipment to a working condition hopefully without killing the office by shutting down something critical in error. People get real testy when the phone service suddenly vanishes so yeah, this was important stuff to have experience in facing problems that were critical that you do exactly the right thing at the right time. Great content as always, thanks for sharing.
For sure you have a bunch of explaining to do when the office that I worked in was the long distance in and out for the entire Area Code, and worse in our case the Overseas Gateway. You put that out of service mid day and it took very little time and suddenly you would see a bunch of guys in neckties storming into the office. Anytime was bad enough but never business hours. Of course the last thing you needed when your priority was restoring service not explaining multiple times why the office was deathly quiet, not a call going in or out you needed to fix it and explain later. Equivalent in your world say for some reason your ship was suddenly steaming at full speed aimed at the worst possible thing to ram and the Coast Guard wanted you to stop your emergency actions and and talk about it. @@MadeleineWolczko
So on these scenarios, the one who goes last get to see all what was done good/bad from the previous two attempts?😎 nice to see white boards and dry erase markers are part of the ship world just like aviation😃
Cool. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to your first real time.
Thanks for the update . We have full confidence you will continue your path to success . 😃….
Hell yeah... that was pretty cool. Growing more every day. Thanks for getting us an inside look.
Absolutely 🙌
Another great video, thank you Madeleine
🙌
Thanks for sharing! Looks like a nicely run program.
Pretty great!
It's all good until; The Devil comes around in the Motorboat... Thx for sharing...
Haha we actually did have a scenario where a small boat in an act of terrorism put a hole in the stern
Congratulations Young’in🎉🎉😊

Nice! I had no idea they had sims for telecommunications too. Very cool

Yes, but they'll change little things for the next person, so what's expected may not necessarily happen. Usually it's different emergency situations.
A slightly off topic question. In your travels around the world, have you ever had civilians ride along on one of your cargo ship assignments?
Only scientists. No passengers though. They generally don't allow them on US flag vessels anymore for security reasons
Awesome..!!!
🥳
Does the instructor control and adapt the scenario in real time?
Yes
Very exciting training for you! How long do you estimate before your training allows you to bid on a bridge position?
I've been working on the bridge as an officer for 8 years.
