Training is a critical element of success in any occupation. In the maritime industry, where 60,000 pound container loads are hoisted hundreds of feet into the air, day and night, in all types of weather, training is mission-critical.
The Port of Virginia prides itself on investing in the training of our colleagues and partners. We also pride ourselves on supporting the U.S. military. The port is home to world’s largest naval base, and all branches of the armed forces operate in Hampton Roads. Throughout the month of November, we were honored to host members of the Army’s 368th Seaport Operations Company, and The Official 11th Transportation Battalion both based out of Fort Story, in Virginia Beach, as they trained on two ship-to-shore crane simulators at Norfolk International Terminals (NIT).
The 2019 acquisition of the GlobalSim, Inc, crane simulators is another example of partnership, as well as the collaborative approach all Hampton Roads Shipping Association and Virginia Maritime Association employer members pursue for safer, more productive, port operations.
