Vstep

VSTEP is a leading innovator in maritime simulation technology, enabling learning through solutions that enhance training effectiveness, cultivate essential skills, advance safety, and promote sustainability. Since 2002, VSTEP’s innovation and deep maritime expertise have transformed how academies, fleet owners, port authorities, and navies prepare for the challenges of modern seafaring. Our simulation solutions span navigation and ship handling, inland radar and fairway operations, towage and escort, and bridge training, so professionals and organizations have the tools they need to succeed. By recreating vessel hydrodynamics and environmental conditions with fidelity, our simulators allow learners to practice critical manoeuvres, experience emergency scenarios, and strengthen decision making in safe, realistic environments. Through learning by simulation, VSTEP helps the maritime world learn faster, work safer, and operate more sustainably.
