Whitebridge Marine · Maritime Systems Training

Training that proves competence, not just tests it.

// from training experience to training evidence

Interactive maritime trainers that sit between e-learning and the simulator — behavioural, scalable, and generating competency evidence automatically. Built by an ETO with 30 years at sea, not by someone who's read about it.

About

Neil Gordon — Electro-Technical Officer and founder of Whitebridge Marine
NEIL GORDON
ETO · Founder · 30 yrs at sea

I'm an Electro-Technical Officer with over 30 years at sea — Royal Navy submarines, offshore oil & gas, and cruise ship engineering. I started Whitebridge Marine because I kept running into the same gaps: training that tests knowledge but not real competence, drydock coordination running on WhatsApp and spreadsheets, and software built by people who've never stood an engine room watch.

I provide instructional consulting to maritime training centres across Europe, and build software that solves the problems I lived with for years at sea.

Consulting Services

Expert instructor-led training for maritime centres across Europe — delivered by people who've actually run the systems they teach.

Expert Instructor Delivery

Marine Mechanical & Electrical

Instructors who've stood the watch — delivering your training courses with the authority that only comes from having operated the plant.

Specialised Courses

ERM · HV · Technical

Engine Room Management, High Voltage, and the technical maritime courses most centres struggle to staff to standard.

Tailored Solutions

Maritime Software

Built by someone who's lived these operational challenges firsthand — and got tired of the workarounds.

Interactive Trainers

Maritime Engineering Education

Not animations — live physics engines. DC link filtering, thermal models, motor dynamics, and fault cascades that behave exactly as they do on board. Instructors inject faults silently in real time; every session generates structured competency evidence, mapped to your competency framework.

  • Behavioural assessment — tests what officers do, not just what they know
  • Works at sea, in the classroom, or at a centre — no installation
  • Automatic competency evidence — feeds into your competency records
