The Fisheries and Marine Institute (MI) of Memorial University of Newfoundland’s Community Based Education Delivery (CBED) unit has initiated and completed a number of successful training programs in Nunavut recently, particularly in the past eight weeks
CBED, a unit of MI’s School of Fisheries, established seven Institute instructors in Nunavut while facilitating the delivery of more than twenty courses in the territory.
Eight students, including five who are graduates of Nunavut Arctic Colleges’ Environmental Technology Program, have received seven weeks of training as Fishery Observers from MI instructors Randy Pittman, Barry Hynick and Ray Hayter. Included in this program is MED A1 training delivered in collaboration with MI’s Offshore Safety and Survival Centre (OSSC) and taught by Marine Institute instructor Dean Turpin.
A pre-sea trawl course was delivered to twelve students, while a group of 10 advanced students took part in a STCW’95 basic safety and survival craft training program, which was partly delivered in Iqaluit, with the reminder of the course being taught at the Safety and Emergency Response Training (SERT) Centre in Stephenville. These training sessions were delivered by MI instructors Jerry Fewer and Allan McLean.
A number of Small Vessel Operator Proficiency courses were also offered by MI, as well as Radio Operations, MED A3 and Marine Basic First Aid. The courses were delivered by Wayne Tucker in Iqaluit, Arviat and Pangnirtung.
The MI Training initiatives will pause for the summer after July 8, before returning in late August. Craig Parsons, Director of Community Based Education Delivery for the Marine Institute, is very pleased with the training in Nunavut and looks forward to continued success in the North later this summer.
“It has been a very successful year for training in Nunavut. In the past month alone we have had several individuals complete vessel officer certification programs in Iqaluit, programs such as Ship Construction and Stability; Navigation Safety; Chart work and Pilotage; Seamanship and Specialized Training in Marine Advanced First Aid; Radio Operations and Marine Emergency Duties; and a Simulated Electronic Navigation course,” said Parsons. "MI’s Randy Pittman is our coordinating instructor in Nunavut and he has been working very closely with the Nunavut Fisheries Training Consortium and Nunavut Arctic College to facilitate this training. We look forward to further collaborations with our partners in Nunavut in the future and want to thank them for their efforts and support in these initiatives.”
