Abstract
The use of complex simulators is an essential part of Maritime Education and Training. Increasing digitalization provides new opportunities for developing simulator-based teaching. As future maritime operations require increasingly specialized and broad competencies, the maritime education community must adapt and provide effective, efficient education and training programs. The purpose of this paper is to present an ongoing initiative to develop a joint simulation learning platform available to all Norwegian maritime education and training providers.
