Abstract
The paper examines the use of VR technologies in the provision of quality training for seafarers, particularly in the context of innovations to ensure environmental sustainability. The authors review the current training provisions for seafarers and highlight the need for a more environmentally conscious approach to it. They then discuss the advantages of using VR in training scenarios and explore how this technology can be used to provide high-quality training that promotes sustainable practices. The article provides a detailed analysis of the different VR applications that can be used to develop seafarers' knowledge in relation to green sustainability including modelling energy-efficient navigation, prevention of marine pollution from ships and waste management. The paper concludes that the use of VR technologies in seafarers' training can promote the development of sustainable practices in marine industry and contribute to a more environmentally conscious approach to shipping.
