L1.3. THE USE OF THE IALA RISK MANAGEMENT TOOLS TRAINING

L1.3. THE USE OF THE IALA RISK MANAGEMENT TOOLS TRAINING

Rome, 11 to 15 Nov 2024

The IALA Risk Management Toolbox is a set of tools developed by the IALA (International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities) to conduct maritime risk assessments. The toolbox includes five tools: IWRAP, PAWSA MK II, SIRA, IRMAS and Simulation. The IALA World-Wide Academy (WWA) provides training based on the “Use of the IALA Risk Management Tools” model course.

This training is designed for individuals responsible for overseeing waterway management as required by SOLAS Chapter V Regulations 12 and 13. The IALA World-Wide Academy, together with the Italian Coast Guard, will run a training course focusing on the following IALA Risk Management tools and providing an overview of the others:

IWRAP is a standardized, quantitative method to evaluate the probability of collisions, groundings, and allisions in a given waterway. Using AIS data, IWRAP, a Windows-based software program, allows different scenarios to be developed so that changes such as those in traffic volume or composition, route geometry, aids to navigation or introducing other mitigating measures can be modelled.
SIRA is a simplified qualitative method to assess the volume of traffic and degree of risk and identify potential risk mitigation options to reduce the risks to acceptable levels. SIRA is particularly applicable where good quality AIS data, on which IWRAP depends, is unavailable or where access to individuals with the necessary experience level in the risk categories PAWSA uses is limited.

Cost: 1 000 € | Language: English
The course includes the following:
▪ A self-study course on the Introduction to the IALA Risk Management Toolbox will be available from October 21 to 25, 2024, (~12 hours commitment).
▪ In-person training will be held from November 11 to 15, 2024, at the Hilton Rome Eur La Lama, Rome, Italy.
