ECDIS Singapore

UK based Marine training firm ECDIS Ltd aspires to open a new office in Singapore, some three months after visiting the country on a UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) trade mission.

The Fareham company hopes to announce that the new office will open later this year, creating an estimated 12 new local jobs. The new centre will house some of the latest training technology, similar to that used daily and displayed in the ECDIS Ltd UK headquarters.

Since opening in 2008, ECDIS Ltd has doubled in size every year and is now established as one of the world’s most respected, endorsed independent ECDIS training companies, offering generic and type specific courses for most of the 34 leading manufacturers of electronic chart display and information systems. The reason for the new centre is to create a centre of excellence in Asia.
