03.02.2020


The International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA) is being represented by Peter Sieniewicz, IMCA Technical Adviser – Diving at this year’s Underwater Intervention (UI) on 5 February 2020.

UI, which takes place in New Orleans 4-6 February 2020, is the premier event for the entire underwater operations industry. Through compelling education and thought-provoking features, UI will draw the industry’s leaders from around the world to gather for three days of networking, thought sharing and relationship building.

Looking forward to UI Peter Sieniewicz said:
“It is an honour to represent IMCA at this conference given its relevance to a key section of our membership and our diving heritage. This is an ideal opportunity to showcase the pilot of our newly developed Continuing Professional Development (CPD) scheme and associated App created for diving supervisors. Trials on the CPD App have now been completed. The feedback received has been extremely positive and encouraging and we are on schedule to launch the App in Q2 this year.”

The CPD scheme incorporating the very latest in training techniques will be available in IOS, Android, Tablet and PC formats.

IMCA has consulted widely with its membership, and the development and governance of the both the scheme and the App has been overseen by IMCA’s Diving Division Management Committee, comprising leading global industry diving managers and experts.
