Wärtsilä Voyage and Ocean Technologies Group (OTG) will share their expertise and resources via a strategic partnership to enhance safety and efficiency in the maritime sector.
With complementary converging digital technologies and platforms, Wärtsilä Voyage and OTG will provide industry stakeholders in maritime learning – shipping companies, maritime training providers, manning agencies and seafarers – with a single end-to-end learning journey, combining on-demand digital training and assessment, virtual and simulation events via cloud-based solutions, and in-person learning experiences at maritime training centres or aboard ship.
Initially the partnership makes Wärtsilä Voyage’s Cloud Simulation services and training catalogue available through OTG’s Ocean Learning Platform. The combined customer pool of over three thousand shipping companies and training centers, plus well over a million seafarers, will be able to access Wärtsilä training, assessment, and certification on an ‘on-demand’ basis, any time, and from anywhere in the world.

Combining this with the learning, competence management and instructional tools provided by the Ocean Learning Platform, including solutions such as OTG’s virtual classroom and rapid e-learning, industry will be presented with a broad and comprehensive range of maritime-specific digital learning solutions.
“Effective use of Smart Marine technology by mariners and shore staff is a critical component of its successful implementation and ensures a smooth transition from traditional methods of operation,” said Sean Fernback, President, Wärtsilä Voyage. “By leveraging our combined smart learning technologies and mariner performance optimisation services, industry can achieve the desired outcome of operating with more efficient, safer, and environmentally aware mariners who are properly equipped to perform in a rapidly changing, digitised maritime industry.”
