DCNS, YOUR NAVAL PARTNER DCNS UNIVERSEATY 3 DCNS Universeaty, on-the-job training in our DNA The service life of a vessel is forty years on average, i.e., more or less the time span of an individual s career. Those who design and build ships will not be the same as those who maintain them over time. Passing on knowledge is essential for the sustainability of a naval force. At DCNS, we have been practicing on-the-job-training for more than 400 years : the most senior staff members train the new comers! This process is in the Group s DNA. DCNS Universeaty, a complete offer in training courses and consulting services for naval defence business The DCNS Universeaty training and consulting offer responds to the industrial and operational objectives of clients that wish to be independent in the management of their naval force. These trainings and the complementary consulting services, relate to all types of surface vessels and submarines and all associated systems and installations. They also cover all steps of a vessel s life cycle: from ship design to decommissioning, through construction and through-life support. For over twenty years, DCNS has successfully performed technology transfers to Navies all over the world. You can now take advantage of all of DCNS Universeaty s proven know-how, to respond from now-on to your future needs. Tailor-made training courses DCNS Universeaty training courses can be delivered at your own premises or at one of our sites in France or around the world.

This is why the DCNS Universeaty training and consulting offer is both wide and customised. It covers all naval defence products and professions and can be built on request.

DCNS, YOUR NAVAL PARTNER DCNS UNIVERSEATY 7 TRAINING TRAINING FOR EACH PHASE OF THE VESSEL S LIFECYCLE Whether they relate to systems, submarines or surface vessels, whether they address design, construction or maintenance issues, DCNS Universeaty training courses are tailored to each of your needs. Lincoln said: If you think education is too expensive, try ignorance. Knowledge is certainly valuable but should be considered through constraints. DCNS Universeaty training courses are tailored to each client. As they rely on the expertise of our trainers as well as the learning tools we have developed, we can promote optimisation and cost control. DESIGN TRAINING The first blank page, the first sketch... DCNS Universeaty trains you right from the start of your projects, whatever the design level: overall design, detailed design and vessel evolution design. To ensure that these training courses are as effective as possible, we also provide training in the use of product data management and computer aided design systems. CONSTRUCTION TRAINING From the first metal plate cutting, the imagined and designed vessel becomes reality. You can be confident: you have been well trained and you can count on DCNS know-how. Thanks to this heritage, DCNS Universeaty can train you in all construction phases of surface ships and submarines: construction, supply chain management, assembly and integration of various types of equipment and systems and, lastly, launching and sea trials before delivery. MAINTENANCE TRAINING Whatever vessel type, its maintenance and its operational availability are vital to protect your interests at sea. Acquiring and mastering the necessary knowledge is therefore key for the future of your naval force. DCNS Universeaty can train both crews in on-board maintenance and clients in routine dockside maintenance or major maintenance tasks, such as dry-dock maintenance and repairs or even manufacturer-level maintenance. 10 REFERENCE NAVIES AROUND THE WORLD HAVE CHOSEN DCNS.
