Do you have employees that need new training or refresher training? Let MosaicHydro help. We teach hydrographic training courses designed for the individuals operating the equipment rather than the engineers who designed it. Our approach to all of our courses is first to teach the essential theory behind the technology, focusing on the practical applications of each concept covered. Next we move into the teaching how to use the technology in a thorough and easy-to-understand teaching method. Finally, where possible, we bring together all aspects of the lectures with practical at-sea training. Your employees will leave our course competent and confident on how to operate the equipment they learned about during the course.
Our courses include:
| 3 & 5 Day Sidescan Sonar Training Courses | |
| 3 & 5 Day Multibeam Sonar Training Courses | |
| 10 Day Hydrographic Training Course | |
| Hydrographic Software Training Courses | |
| Custom Designed Courses |
We can train you at your location using your equipment or at our location using relevant and modern equipment.
