Knowledge of the correct use of a marine radio is not only essential for the safety of all on board, but also required by law. 

An operator of a marine VHF radio must hold a Short-Range Operator Certificate of Proficiency (‘SROCP’).  Many vessels are now equipped with a VHF marine radio with Digital Selective Calling (‘DSC’) capabilities, and AIS transceivers.  This equipment requires registration with the Australian Maritime Safety Authority who issues the vessel an MMSI number to enable these capabilities.  An applicant for an MMSI must hold a SROCP.  

Complete the marine radio course online, at your own pace and gain knowledge to safely and properly use radio equipment with the goal to taking the SROCP (short-range) exam with an Invigilator at the other end of a Whatsapp/Zoom call.  

All course material is online, all you need to do is provide name, email and DOB.
