The Director is pleased to announce that the 2021 IOPC Funds Short Course will be held online for the first time and take place over two weeks between 14 and 25 June 2021, running three hours per day.

The online course programme will cover all aspects of the work of the IOPC Funds and the international liability and compensation regime in general and will include interactive exercises which allow participants to study a theoretical incident and the subsequent claims submission process.  The course is supported by IMO, ICS, the International Group of P&I Associations and ITOPF.
