The direct aim of the training in a smoke chamber is to make trainees acquainted with rules of walking in high smoke zones as well as strengthening their skills related to the evacuation of victims. An indirect aim is improving their skills in operating in two-strong teams of rescuers as well as in the proper usage of individual protection equipment.
The smoke chamber is a characteristic training simulator for exercises for all rescue services and crews working on ships. A specific psychological training takes place in the smoke chamber. The smoke chamber is a maze with obstacles, where visibility is limited due to smoke. Other ‘attractions’ include sound and visual effects as well as the option to change the setting of obstacles.
In addition to coping with stress, the smoke chamber requires the analysis of a current situation and fast reactions. Walking through the maze teaches cooperation and builds trust to other rescue crew members.

We offer one of the broadest training portfolios on the market and operate in accordance with international Global Wind Organisation standards. The quality of our training, the competencies of our instructors and our infrastructure are regularly audited.
We have a specialist training ground where participants practise realistic scenarios, including firefighting operations on PCTC vessels, RO-RO vessels and ferries, as well as hazards associated with electric vehicle fires.
We made competencies available in Poland that previously required training abroad, reducing the time companies need to prepare teams for onshore and offshore projects.
We manage the entire process, from agreeing a suitable date and arranging transport and accommodation to delivering the training and preparing complete documentation. We also provide end-to-end support for groups and teams travelling from abroad.
We train participants using specialist equipment, full-scale structures, training towers, simulators and a pool, so they can practise procedures rather than simply hear about them.
We work with Energy Innovation in Norway and leading maritime institutions in Poland: Gdynia Maritime University and the Polish Naval Academy. We combine international industry experience with expert knowledge and the resources of Polish maritime universities.

The training is practical and delivered in conditions similar to real workplace situations. Our employees return with the required certificates, but above all with knowledge and skills they can use at work.
I took two GWO courses and I am very satisfied. There was plenty of hands-on practice and realistic simulations, and the instructors explained everything clearly and patiently.
IM Training efficiently organised training for our international team, including the logistics, language and formal requirements. Thanks to the effective coordination, we could focus on the project without involving our own team in organising the trip.
The practical sessions after the theory are eye-opening. The instructors are highly competent and the course was delivered thoroughly.
The training dates were aligned with our team mobilisation schedule. The quick response, flexible approach and option to train a larger group on the same date made it significantly easier to prepare our employees for the project.
A repair techniques course. Very good facilities and workstation preparation, efficient organisation and a high standard of practical training.
Very good training delivered by competent instructors. The sessions were engaging, the time passed very quickly and there was plenty of hands-on practice. The training material was thoroughly covered.
The working at heights course is mainly practical: equipment, fall protection and emergency scenarios. Everything was well organised, the instructors were direct and clear, and the equipment was modern. No nonsense.
