I would like to announce that APPDS Ltd is the first, of hopefully many companies, to have their Maritime Security Operator course officially recognized and endorsed by the IAMSP.

Reference: Silver Recommendation of APPDS Marine Security Officer Course
Dear Sir,
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the International Association of Maritime Security Professionals (IAMSP), I am pleased to inform you that we have concluded the review of your Hostile Maritime Environment Operator Foundation Course. The result of this review is that the IAMSP has found your course to be suitable for formal recognition at the Silver criteria.
The Silver criteria are based upon examination of course documentation (including course content and the Course Training Standard) and interviews with core personnel involved in the development of the course. This review was conducted by persons who were mutually agreed upon as having the requisite level of knowledge, skills, and experience to judge the subject matter being assessed.
In support of these statements, the course material was reviewed by persons who held senior officer positions within the maritime security domain (Captain Level) and an active senior member of the police and special tactical forces. We are retaining the documentation in support of those reviews.
On behalf of the Executive of the IAMSP, we congratulate you on your efforts and your commitment to advancing the professionalization of maritime security.
Best regards,

Allan McDougall (BA BMASc PCIP CMAS CISSP CPP)
