Add a Certification

When you earn a new certification, you can add it yourself in My Helm. It's then submitted to shore for approval.

To add a certification

1. Go to the My Helm > Profile > Certifications tab.
2. Click the Add icon (+) at the top right.
3. In the Add Crew Certification window, select the certification you're adding.
4. Fill in the details. A field marked with a red asterisk (*) is required.
   • Obtained: the date you got it.
   • Expiry: the date it expires.
   • Reference Number: the number on the certificate, if it has one.
   • Note: anything you want shore to know.
   • Attach file: a photo or copy of the certificate.
5. (Optional) Keep Redirect to Requests selected to go to the Requests view after you add the certification, or clear it to stay on the Certifications tab.
6. Click Add.

What Happens Next

Your certification shows as Requested until shore approves it, and then it moves to your On File list.

To see your certifications, renew one, or check on a request, see "Manage Your Certifications."
