Focus on Communication at Maritime Simulation User Conference

The Kongsberg Maritime 2006 Americas' User Conference (UC2006), which took place from 2nd - 5th December in Orlando USA attracted over 50 users of Kongsberg Maritime simulation systems to several keynotes, based around a theme of increasing importance to training institutes in North America and worldwide: Return on Investment. The armed forces session of UC2006 was also venue for the introduction of a new database exchange program, which has been developed to enable co-operation and sharing of databases between Kongsberg Maritime's military simulation customers. The inaugural exchange was between the Royal New Zealand Navy and the Canadian Navy, who signed up to the program during the conference.
