As remotely operated vessels (ROVs) become more capable and more autonomous, they are finding their way into an expanding range of scientific and industrial applications. To ensure the individuals who manage and operate these increasingly complex pieces of apparatus get the recognition and support they deserve, the IMarEST has set out a road-map with seven waypoints, ultimately leading to the development of universally recognised professional credentials for ROV ‘pilots’ and accreditation of courses, industry frameworks or corporate learning schemes.
