New 4 day residential surveying course for yacht and small craft
surveyors under consideration IIMS recognises that those with less or limited marine surveying experience, especially those who plan to study, or who are already learning, or who have completed a Professional Qualification with the Institute, may struggle with those early surveying assignments. Am I inspecting this boat correctly and in sufficient detail and is my report up to scratch are just two of the key questions a surveyor is likely to ask him or herself.
IIMS is planning to launch a new 4 day residential programme which will run at the Boat Building Academy in Lyme Regis, Dorset, UK from 13 to 16 November 2023. Interest in the programme has been shown already, and although the group will be deliberately small, IIMS needs to be sure there is enough demand before proceeding.
The key aim is to offer delegates a blend of face-to-face theory and practical marine surveying tuition with the final test being to write a simple pre-purchase survey report on a boat that has actually been inspected earlier in the week, which will then be marked and assessed. Senior surveyors who are members of the Institute’s management board will be on hand to assist, tutor and advise delegates as they inspect and survey the boats in depth.
The plan is to spend two days surveying two boats of different construction materials (subject to availability) in the Lyme Regis area. A further day will be devoted to detailed report writing tuition plus a review of the surveyor’s tool kit.
The cost for the training programme is just £650 (No VAT) without accommodation, or £995 (No VAT) to include quality accommodation. Food, drink, and travel are at own cost.
At this stage, IIMS is asking for expressions of interest from those keen to take advantage of this unique opportunity. Please note that by making an expression of interest, you are not giving a final commitment to attend.
