The second phase of the Kiwa pilot started in April.<\/p>\n<p>The advantages of issuing digital documents include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a reduced risk of forgeries,<\/li>\n<li>decreased production of physical documents,<\/li>\n<li>enhanced enforcement options, and<\/li>\n<li>an improved user experience<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>During the first pilot, participants provided feedback and suggestions for improvements, making the digital certificates more practical and user-friendly.\u00a0Rood Boven Groen is participating in the second phase of the pilot. During this phase, in addition to the CoC\u2019s, STCW training certificates will also be digitally issued in the &#8216;Kiwa eWallet&#8217; app. All information about the pilot can be found on the Kiwa Register website <a title=\"https:\/\/www.kiwaregister.com\/nl\/water\/digitale-zeevarenden-certificaten-uitgegeven-door-nederland\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kiwaregister.com\/nl\/water\/digitale-zeevarenden-certificaten-uitgegeven-door-nederland\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-outlook-id=\"5e2b42f8-9bd6-4670-b59b-1fb2e420f031\"><strong>www.kiwaregister.com<\/strong><\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=&#8221;custom&#8221; accent_color=&#8221;#004029&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Would you like to receive future updates and important information directly in your mailbox?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<style type=\"text\/css\" data-type=\"the7_shortcodes-inline-css\">#default-btn-e3de625d7272898141a2235e8660faf9.ico-right-side > i {\n  margin-right: 0px;\n  margin-left: 8px;\n}\n#default-btn-e3de625d7272898141a2235e8660faf9 > i {\n  margin-right: 8px;\n}<\/style><div class=\"btn-align-center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/g83cqn\" class=\"default-btn-shortcode dt-btn dt-btn-m link-hover-off  vc_custom_1679047063779\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"default-btn-e3de625d7272898141a2235e8660faf9\" rel=\"noopener\"><i class=\"icomoon-the7-font-telegram\"><\/i><span>You can now sign up for our STCW Training news update here!<\/span><\/a><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row bg_type=&#8221;image&#8221; parallax_style=&#8221;vcpb-vz-jquery&#8221; bg_image_new=&#8221;id^89|url^https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2000px_745625317.jpg|caption^null|alt^null|title^2000px_745625317|description^null&#8221; bg_image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221; parallax_sense=&#8221;50&#8243; bg_override=&#8221;full&#8221; disable_on_mobile_img_parallax=&#8221;disable_on_mobile_img_parallax_value&#8221; parallax_content=&#8221;parallax_content_value&#8221; parallax_content_sense=&#8221;50&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1591095257578{margin-top: -100px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;150px&#8221;][vc_row_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1591094995702{background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.95) !important;*background-color: rgb(255,255,255) !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] STCW Training News In STCW Training News update nr. 16: Kiwa Pilot 2 issuance of digital certificates May 2025[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;100px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1591267562241{margin-top: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;] Other news in this STCW Training News Update: New Dutch&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8009","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","category-23","description-off"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8009","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8009"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8009\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8025,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8009\/revisions\/8025"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8009"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8009"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8009"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
