BVTraining – ISPS Code Internal Auditors Course

Following the tragic events of 11th September 2001, the twenty-second session of the Assembly of the International Maritime organization agreed to the development of new measures relating to the security of ships and of port facilities. ISPS Code, the International Ship and Port Facility Security, is now mandatory since July 2004 according to the amendments of Chapter XI-2 of the Solas. The objectives of the Code are to be achieved by designation of appropriate officers/personnel on each ship, in port facility and in each shipping company to prepare and to put into effect the security plans that will be approved for each ship and port facility.
