MTCS The world leader in subsea training and competence management,oil and gas exploration training.

Maritime Training & Competence Solutions (MTCS) is internationally acknowledged as the most experienced and professional underwater technology training centre in the world, and has a proven track record. We appreciate that choosing the right training centre for you is vital to your personal development and ultimately your future career. We provide industry leading training to major subsea contract

ing companies all over the world and welcome many service leavers and those currently serving onto our training courses. It is evident to us that many employers appreciate and actively source the skills and mind-set that forces personnel possess in the civilian work place. Those on our courses, who will come from an engineering background, are building upon existing skill sets which can be easily transferred and applied to the offshore industry. For this reason we see many of our course delegates finding successful offshore careers with companies who see and appreciate the benefits of employing ex-HM forces personnel. In addition to the Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) Induction course, MTCS has many safety, technical and supervisory courses to choose from for personnel once they have established a career in the industry. MTCS is also the recognised and accredited certifying body for Personnel Competence within the ROV Industry. Our dedicated team of instructors will help you in your quest for employment; offering one-to-one time to go over your CV with you and bring out the best you have to offer in it. Through working for global offshore corporations we have key leads and contacts within the industry and are able to advise on current employment opportunities. All of our successful candidates are registered into the MTCS Ltd competence management program, which is included in our course fee. This enables MTCS Ltd delegates to continue their personal and professional development when offshore, leading to further certification - a service which no other training centre can provide.

Candidates sometimes ask why a CV or completed logbook is not enough to demonstrate competence.

Both can provide useful information. A CV shows employment history and job titles, while a logbook records workplace activity.

However, competence assessment may also need to consider how tasks were performed, whether the required knowledge was understood and whether performance was consistent.

Witness testimony, workplace documentation, knowledge evidence and assessment records help create a more complete picture.

Visit the MTCS Support Centre for more assessment and evidence guidance.

We support organisations that need to strengthen and externally verify their competence management programmes.

We also deliver corporate training and structured online learning for assessors, trainers, supervisors and technical professionals.

“Why does MTCS exist?”

It is a fair question, especially if you have already spent years working within your role.

Experience builds practical skills, technical knowledge and professional judgement. However, a job title or number of years worked does not always provide employers and clients with the evidence they require.

MTCS helps individuals demonstrate their competence through a structured, independent assessment and certification process.

This creates a clear record of workplace performance, knowledge and supporting evidence.

Quick reminder for anyone compiling ICA evidence: if the same person completes both your Appraisal and Witness Statement, you'll need a second Appraisal from someone else.

No company Appraisal form? MTCS has a generic one you can download and complete, and performance reviews or end-of-trip reports work too.
