Holland College is expanding its Marine Training and Commercial Diving program offerings with support from the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA).
There are two projects that are part of this expansion; the first is the purchase of new equipment for both the Marine Training and Georgetown Centres. The Marine Training Centre will purchase an Advanced Tug Bridge Simulator, a Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) Cargo Handling Simulator as well as other control and simulator systems. With the addition of new diving equipment at the Georgetown Centre, the College will be able to offer new programs in commercial scuba and diver medic training.

The new tug simulator will feature a Kongsberg Polaris Full Mission Bridge with 280 degrees of visuals. Three additional bridges will be significantly enhanced, allowing for advanced, dynamic ship-to-ship interaction and comprehensive training scenarios involving multiple tugboats and other vessels.
