Dear Member States,

The IALA World-Wide Academy (WWA), in collaboration with the Maritime and
Port Authority of Singapore MPA Academy (Singapore), is conducting a short
survey to assess the current and future competency needs of Aids to
Navigation (AtoN) Managers, as part of the review of the IALA Level 1.1
AtoN Manager Model Course.

We kindly invite Competent Authorities, AtoN service providers, AtoN
managers, and relevant technical or operational staff to share their
perspectives.

Your input will help ensure that the training programme remains aligned
with evolving operational needs, digital developments, and modern AtoN
management practices.

The survey takes approximately 30 to 40 minutes to complete.
