Certification and Accreditation Standard

Trainee DPOs who started the training scheme from 1 January 2015 (i.e. DP Induction Course) will train under the criteria and conditions set up for the new training scheme.

The new version of the DP training standard has been split into two volumes. One for DPOs and trainee DPOs, and then a second containing further information for training centres:


The Nautical Institute Dynamic Positioning Accreditation and Certification Standard Vol. 1 - Training and Certification - V1 - February 2026

The Nautical Institute Dynamic Positioning Accreditation and Certification Standard Vol. 2 - Accreditation  - V1 - February 2026


Please note that the time for completing the initial training for the Offshore New Scheme,  Shuttle Tanker Scheme and DP Self-elevating Platform (Jack-up) Scheme has been increased from four years to five years.
