The course introduces core Maritime Operations roles such as Sea Control, Power Projection and Maritime Security, and breaks each into its components on both the open ocean and in the conduct of littoral combat operations. Critical enabling capabilities such as Command and Control, Battlespace Awareness, Survey, Maritime Joint Fires, Sustained Presence and Uncrewed Systems are also discussed. A practical scenario-based instructor-led workshop utilising *Command: Professional Edition* simulation software is used to enhance understanding and application of Maritime Operations concepts. --- ## Intended Audience This course is suitable for personnel that require an understanding of the principles of Maritime Operations conducted in both the open ocean and in littoral areas in the presence of multiple threats. --- ## Course Modules - Concept of Maritime Operations - Core Maritime Operations roles: - Sea Control - Power Projection - Maritime Security - Critical Supporting elements: - Knowledge, Command & Control - Assured Engagement - Maritime Manoeuvre - Sustained Presence - Enduring Protection - Maritime Platforms - Scenario based workshop utilising *Command: Professional Edition* --- Course price: AU$4,774.00 inc GST [Click here](https://soio.com.au/short-courses#grants) for available Government Grants.   ![SC004---Introduction-to-Maritime-Operations](https://soio.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/SC004---Introduction-to-Maritime-Operations.jpg?width=450&height=277&name=SC004---Introduction-to-Maritime-Operations.jpg "SC004---Introduction-to-Maritime-Operations") ##### *"Thank you for a great course.
