Course Overview

Learn the fundamentals of traditional and electronic navigation, including navigation using paper charts and electronic devices (e.g., a chart plotter and app-based software). Each section includes course notes, which can be downloaded electronically or printed in booklet format, instructional videos, skill-testing quizzes and practice exercises, and links to supplementary resources, including web-based links and videos related to each topic. Participants must complete the cruise exercises with a chartplotter or tablet/phone navigation app. The course provides options for purchasing apps starting at $14.00. The course, which can be taken online/virtual or in a classroom (where available), is 8 to 9 weeks in length (at the discretion of the instructor team). A final exam is also available.
