The ISPS Code requires training, drill and exercises. At what intervals do we have to conduct drills on board?
Part A of the Code requires drills to be carried out at “appropriate intervals”. Part B of the Code stipulates that at least every three months a drill should be conducted and, if more than 25 % or more of the crew has been changed, at least within one week. USG strongly recommends to fulfill part B’s requirements and to include such intervals in the shipboard training procedures in the SSP.
