In the rather extended maritime domain, a term that should be the epicenter of any successful career-building path is tailor-made training via cutting-edge simulators. The post-sea training requires the much needed simulators to train the seafarers once they have gained an experience on-board. The training imparted to the seafarers could thereby divided into two segments, pre-sea and post sea.

Training is an integral part of the process to prepare the seafarers for the job on-board. Specific types of ships require specific skills for the seafarers to work there and hence specific training required. This growth in the shipping industry requires seafarers to be trained to take up different, challenging jobs on-board different types of ships. Performance has been restricted to fewer personnel (of Multinational origin), and port stay has been drastically reduced. The heavy competition between the associated companies has altered the way in which seafarers perform and rest.

Some of the recognizable changes can be the extensive containerization and also transportation under flags of convenience. The duties of seafarers have also experienced a dramatic transfiguration, responsive to these changes in the industry. Over the last few decades there has been a drastic change in marine industry owing to the development of technology.
