This is an additional service to its existi ng face-to-face UK tonnage training\, (currently curtailed due to the pand emic) which has been authorized by the MCA for some years.\n\nThis trainin g is available to IIMS members and non-members too. But to become formally authorized to process tonnages through IIMS\, (where the Institute has re gistry agreements in place - see list below)\, and Part I and Part II must be completed and you need to be a member. Those who wish to study Part I only\, UK tonnage measurement theory\, may do so to extend their surveying knowledge.\n\nIIMS is innovating using smart technology to deliver a new methodology of authorizing tonnage surveyors. For the first time\, tonnage theory training can now be offered remotely to surveyors anywhere in the world who are involved with vessels up to 24 metres.\n\nPart I – Tonnage measurement theory seminar\n\nUsing the Zoom platform\, IIMS will deliver the first live tonnage measurement theory seminar on Wednesday 22nd Septe mber from 10.00 to 13.00 (UK time). The training provides an explanation o f UK tonnage measurement theory\, including the background to tonnage and detailing the specific requirements and measurements necessary to successf ully complete a tonnage survey.\n\nPrior to the seminar\, delegates will b e sent the pdf IIMS Tonnage Training Manual. The seminar itself will be re corded. Following the presentation\, all delegates will be sent the PowerP oint slides and a copy of the video as a reference. A certificate of atten dance will be issued.\n\nThe cost for Part I only is £100 for members and £120 for non-members.\n\nPart II – The practical video evidence\n\nFor those who wish to become an IIMS approved tonnage surveyor and thus able to process tonnages through the Institute\, it is necessary to complete Pa rt II\, the practical evidence-based assessment leading to formal authoriz ation.\n\nThere are no time constraints on completing Part II and it can b e done at the surveyor’s convenience once Part I has been studied. Surve yors will be required to record short video clips (filmed by their own han d or by an attending associate) to demonstrate an understanding of the req uirements and principles of conducting a tonnage measurement as taught by the theory training in Part I. IIMS will want to see video evidence of mea surements being taken on a vessel in water\, out of water and one with a s tep-deck for scrutineering. IIMS had made some sample videos to give an id ea of what is expected. Over 30 short video examples can be viewed on a Yo uTube playlist. Video evidence along with a completed electronic tonnage f orm needs to be submitted for scrutineering before authorization is grante d.\n\nThose who become formally authorized as an IIMS MCA approved tonnage surveyor on completion of Part I and Part II will receive a formal certif icate of achievement.\n\nThe cost for Part I and Part II is £275 for memb ers and £295 for non-members.\n\nImportant note.\n\nThe MCA Tonnage Autho rity agreement authorizes IIMS to certificate United Kingdom ships in acco rdance with certain applicable requirements of the legislation. Part III o f the 1997 Regulations regulates the tonnage and certification of under 24 m vessels by way of a simplified tonnage measurement system.\n\nIIMS is cu rrently able to process tonnage surveys on behalf of surveyors through the following registries:\nBritish Virgin Islands\nCayman Islands\nGibraltar\ nGuernsey\nIsle of Man\nJersey\nUnited Kingdom\n\nIf you become authorized through IIMS training and wish to carry out tonnage surveys through regis tries other than those named above\, please note that the Institute does n ot have formal agreements in place at this time. Other registries may have similar but different tonnage requirements and you should satisfy yoursel f before becoming formally IIMS authorized. IIMS will provide confirmation of your certification to other registries on request to help you to gain their acceptance of your capabilities as a tonnage surveyor and authorizat ion\; but IIMS cannot give a guarantee of their acceptance.\n\nRegister yo ur place below. Or if you prefer not to book online\, please email Vicki L oizides or call her +44 23 9238 5223 and we will invoice you.
