Some of the most enjoyable events are the meetings with seafarers and shore-side staff at crew conferences. It has been a privilege for ALL Academy to embark upon an MRM project with Wallenius Marine in Stockholm and Singapore where the focus so far has been on introducing the MRM concept to their seafarers. In less than a year, this has been done three times in connection with officer conferences in Manila. The third such event was held at the Makati Shangri-La Hotel and a full day, 8 October 2014, was dedicated to MRM. The day ended with a case study analyzed from an MRM perspective. A selection of photos from the event are shown below.
