Gain your SCO Certificate...
The Skipper Coastal / Offshore (SCO) certificate allows you to take charge of many commercial vessels up to 24 metres, operating within restricted, coastal, and offshore limits. The course prepares you to sit the MNZ Skipper Coastal / Offshore certificate of competency exam, which leads to the New Zealand Certificate in Domestic Maritime Operations (Coastal and Offshore) Level 5.
It can be completed in 4–5 weeks with Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) or over six months without RPL. Courses are offered in Nelson or via remote learning options to suit your needs.
To enrol, you’ll need a Skipper Restricted Limits (SRL) certificate endorsed to 24 metres (or equivalent), proof of minimum sea service requirements, current ancillary certificates, and compliance with MNZ’s fit and proper person and medical fitness standards.
