A New Standard for Maritime Search and Rescue

Maritime Search and Rescue Endorsement Scheme

A Maritime SAR Council and Nautical Institute Collaboration

The Maritime Search and Rescue Endorsement Scheme has been developed to address the specialist skills and knowledge required for effective maritime SAR operations. Recognising the vital need for specialist expertise in carrying out search and rescue operations safely and efficiently, the scheme allows candidates to complete practical tasks, acquire essential knowledge, and be assessed for certification beyond the general maritime training and assessment undertaken as part of their career progression.


The Maritime Search and Rescue Council and The Nautical Institute recognise that crew on board search and rescue vessels require specialist skills and knowledge to operate their vessels safely and efficiently. The Scheme ensures that seafarers are able meet a professional standard of proficiency and be awarded a Maritime Search and Rescue Endorsement.  


The scheme is divided into two endorsement routes, Command Endorsement and Crew Endorsement.
