Important Notice — Educational Simulator Disclaimer & Terms of Use

Educational Purpose Only. The ECDIS interface simulators on this platform are independently developed educational tools created solely for maritime training and familiarization purposes. They are not affiliated with, endorsed by, licensed by, or products of Furuno Electric Co., JRC (Japan Radio Company), Transas (Wärtsilä), Kongsberg Maritime, Raytheon Anschütz, or any other manufacturer. Manufacturer names and interface styles are referenced solely for educational familiarization. All simulators are original software created by STEP-UP Masterclass.

Simulator Accuracy & Completeness. By accessing these simulators, you acknowledge and accept that: (1) the simulated interface may not exactly replicate the appearance, layout, behavior, or full functionality of the actual manufacturer's equipment; (2) not all features, menu items, alarms, or operational modes of the real machine may be implemented in this training version; (3) STEP-UP Masterclass makes no warranty, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness, or fitness for any particular purpose of these training simulators; and (4) while every reasonable effort has been made to faithfully represent the real equipment for training purposes, the simulator is a best-effort educational replica and not a certified reproduction.

No Refund Policy. All simulator access fees are strictly non-refundable once the simulator has been activated on your account. By completing payment and requesting activation, you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted these terms in full — including the limitations on simulator accuracy and functionality stated above.

For Official Type-Specific ECDIS Training, please contact a manufacturer-approved training center. These simulators are a supplementary familiarization resource and do not fulfill the STCW type-specific ECDIS training requirement under Regulation I/14.
