The presentation shares the work undertaken at the Singapore Maritime Academy to run an IT-infused Certificate of Competency course for Steam Propulsion. Instead of traditional lectures, the learners were encouraged to move towards self-directed learning, knowledge creation, self-evaluation of competence and contribute to the growth of a core knowledgebase in steam engineering through collaboration and sharing among the participants. The experiments conducted with CmapTools software suite provided knowledge visualization and access points to the core KBS. According to Novak and Cañas (2008), knowledge creation by individuals facilitates the process of learning for the learners. A system of shipboard procedural knowledge capture was introduced, which is expected to have a significant impact on keeping the content knowledge updated and incrementally enhance the core KBS at SMA. It is claimed that such course structures might provide some answers to the gap in competency between knowledge and proficiency acquired at MET institutions and the real requirement at sea.

STC-NMU masterclass on ship recycling 20 jun 2013 Maurice Jansen
The Masterclass Shipping and Transport is organised by STC-NMU and Association of Young Port Professionals to privde a platform for knowledge exchange between young professionals in the maritime and port industrial cluster in Rotterdam.
The masterclass bring forward topics from the Master Shipping and Transport curriculum which are complemented with presentations of business practices explained by industry professionals.
On 20th of June 2013, Mr Arjen Uytendaal (director ISRA) and Mr Tom Peter Blankesstijn (managing director Sea2Cradle) elaborated on the business practices of ship recycling in the world and how to approach the scrapping of old ships in a safe, sustainable manner.
The illustrations are made first hand by the speakers.
Robert Lee has over 35 years of experience in marine and fisheries projects. He has extensive experience as a senior expert working for organizations such as FAO, ILO, and on projects in countries across Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, and Latin America. His expertise includes fisheries management, fishing operations and technologies, disaster risk reduction, and project management.
The document outlines a 3-phase proposal for a yacht maintenance, boatbuilding, and sailing school in Lombok, Indonesia. Phase I involves establishing a workshop and training center. Phase II expands to a sailing school and development of a national racing team. Phase III is a marina, charter service, and equipment shop. The goals are to create jobs, offer education, and boost eco-tourism through sailing and boatbuilding programs that teach skills to local youth. Support is needed from local governments and cooperation from educational and transportation departments.
The document discusses maritime safety challenges and opportunities for transnational cooperation in the European Atlantic coastal region. It outlines the EU Atlantic Area programme which provides funding to improve maritime safety as a priority. Potential areas for future cooperation projects include developing common strategies, monitoring systems, research and education around water safety, risk prevention and emergency response.

Societal implications of economies of scale in liner shipping by Maurice JansenMaurice Jansen
The document discusses the societal implications of economies of scale in liner shipping. It notes that while larger container ships lower costs for shipping lines, they may not benefit society overall. Pursuing ever-larger vessels leads to overcapacity, deteriorating freight rates, more market concentration, and younger ships being scrapped. It also forces unnecessary port expansions and creates less stable supply chains. The document questions if maximizing shareholder value should be the sole purpose of firms, and explores how digitization could help optimize resource use across supply chains for broader societal benefit.
Masterclass Our Oceans Challenge / Thursday 23 February 2017Maurice Jansen
The theme of the Masterclass of Thursday 23 February centered around Our Oceans Challenge, a crowdsourcing initiative of a number of leading Dutch maritime and offshore companies and knowledge partners. The aim is to generate as much as feasible ideas towards five major challenges. In two sequential masterclasses, approximately 100 students and young professionals of Rotterdam Mainport University, Netherlands Maritime University and YoungShip Rotterdam engaged in brainstorm sessions leading to concrete ideas. All of these activities were then posted on the online crowdsourcing platform.
World oceans cover roughly 70% of planet and provide thè source of live on Earth. Following the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) the seabed area and its mineral resources are declared as the heritage of mankind. Despite or maybe because of the common right of access to the sea and its resources, our oceans are under pressure. Ecosystems are slow to recover because of exploitation from activities onshore, offshore or from relentless fishery. And yet, it provides for millions and millions of people’s quality of life, employment and existence. Our Oceans Challenge (OOC) believes that despite the challenges, there are opportunities to balance ocean protection with the responsible use and exploitation of ocean space and resources. OOC calls upon the industry to show its responsibility and time to generate breakthrough ideas. The aim is to accelerate innovative and sustainable ideas into viable business.
As an introduction Dr Luc Cuyvers - with his passion for the sea and track record as a documentary maker, author and ocean and marine researcher – provided the audience with an anthology of the issues that he has witnessed in the past 35 to 40 years in his career. Subsequently to Cuyvers’ introduction presentation, Mattijs Bolk, one of the driving forces behind OOC explained how this crowdsourcing initiative started. The ambition is in line with the Sustainable Development Goals, especially Living Oceans. Heerema Contractors took this open innovation initiative last year and this year invited other offshore contractors, knowledge partners and launch partners to join. The biggest challenge for the industry is to develop sustainable business models.
With these challenges students and young maritime professionals went along and engaged in creative brainstorming process, facilitated by people from Our Oceans Challenge. The workshop outputs consisted of various rough ideas that were immediately posted on the OOC open innovation platform. Good ideas are taken further in this platform, enriched with the expertise, insights and thoughts of other industry specialists. From the current 111 ideas, the best ideas will be taken into the development phase, and accelerate into ready-to-use business solutions. All students who are active on the platform will be able to follow how these ideas find its ways to a sustainable offshore industry.

Port paradoxes; what are the paradoxes in the port landscape?Maurice Jansen
Many port-cities around the world have presented ambitious port expansion plans to bridge the infrastructure gap as a way to gear up their economies. At the same time, many ports are troubled by heavy congestion, labour disputes, scarcity of land, negative public opinion, environmental degradation and a fight for talent. Existing models of problem solving and solution design start from a bargaining position, which usually ends up in a trade-off. The value of paradox thinking lies in the acknowledgement that problems are surrounded with ambiguity. Such a mind-set can trigger creativity, out-of-the box thinking, organisational learning and co-operation which can resolve complicated issues. What paradoxes are we facing in the port landscape and how can this creative tension trigger renewal and innovation?
Masterclass Unmanned vessels - vice and virtue for shipping industry?Maurice Jansen

Challenges include addressing safety, responsibilities, and developing business models to support remote operations. The way forward involves further studies on regulatory frameworks and pilot testing of partial autonomous implementations.
The port paradoxes of our age - sustainable port competitiveness through par...Maurice Jansen
In a mature port cluster, conflicting interests are usually accommodated in the sense of a settlement of differences. This approach suggests that the quality of cluster performance us a product of the bargaining society. The question is whether bargaining is effective for solving the highly complex challenges of today? It is certainly not the most constructive one. This presentation covers the paradoxes in the port landscape, the existing paradigms towards issue management as well as an alternative approach based on organisational learning, knowledge sharing and collaborative action.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

• Unattractiveness of a career at sea;
• Maintaining attractive location for maritime ‘footloose’ companies;
• Realisation that competitiveness lies in innovation and sustainability .
• Cluster approach first applied in the nineties; maritime organisations around
Europe are still forming new cluster organisations
• Strong link between strategy and maritime policy required:
• Interaction between skills required and education provided;
• Labour market developments in high and low economies;
• Career developments and need for knowledge captivation.
