HELMS

Maritime LMS Software for Smarter Crew Training & Compliance

A cloud-based maritime learning management system that helps shipping companies and institutes manage crew training from one centralized platform.

Operational Challenges in Maritime Training

The real training and compliance challenges faced by shipping companies and maritime training institutes in daily operations.

Maintaining Crew Compliance at Scale

Managing STCW certifications, medical validity and mandatory training for large and rotating crews is complex. Missed renewals or outdated records can lead to non-compliance and vessel delays.

Inconsistent Training Across Vessels

Crew members often join vessels with different training histories. Without standardized programs, training quality varies across fleets, impacting safety and operational consistency.

Limited Training Access at Sea

Crew spend long periods offshore with unreliable connectivity. Traditional online systems fail to support learning and assessments during voyages.

Manual Competency Tracking

Assessing onboard skills, task completion and experience-based learning is often handled manually. This makes it difficult to measure readiness for specific ranks and responsibilities.

Scattered Training Records and Documents

Certificates, assessments and crew records are stored across emails, spreadsheets and files. Retrieving accurate information during audits becomes time-consuming and risky.

Lack of Real-Time Readiness Visibility

Fleet managers need instant visibility into crew competency and compliance status. Delayed or incomplete reports limit proactive decision-making.
