1930 to 2230

We open classes for BG2-ZOOM every week, you are advised taking 1 session per week to complete the course in 1 month. 

What students need to know?

  • Students msut wear life jackets/buoyancy aids when taking lessons in any Category 4 vessels. 

  • If students have to leave the teaching vessel earlier by their own reasons, there will be no compensation.

  • If students expect late more than 15 mintues to attend the lesson, they must phone the Instructor and supplementary lesson will be arranged. However, administrative charge is required, depending on which course they take.

The training material is written in Chinese.
