As mariners, we all would have interacted with classification society surveyors for various purposes on board the vessel. Many of us would have also wondered how to become a marine surveyor and what are the various roles that a mariner could play in a classification society career.

In this regard, we held a webinar on 27th June with Mr. Vijay Arora, who is the Managing Director of the Indian Register of Shipping and who once sailed as Chief Engineer on a merchant vessel. This session provides insights into shore opportunities for seafarers in classification societies.

The topics of the webinar include:

Historical Roots – Origin of Classification Society
Purpose of Classification Society
Classification Society – Objectives & Aims
Classification Certificate
Role of Classification and Classification Societies in maritime safety
Classification Rules / Rule Development Cycle
Classification Society – Definition
Scope of Classification
Qualities & qualification of marine surveyors
Classification Surveys
Role of Other Stakeholders in Maritime Safety Regime

Mr. Vijay Arora provides valuable career guidance for seafarers looking to transition into shore jobs in classification societies, helping them understand how to move from sea to shore roles.
