NavSkills™  CBT NXT  is, as the name indicates, the next and updated version of the Furuno ECDIS CBT (Computer Based Training) solution. The course content is updated according to the newest software updates of the Furuno ECDIS FMD-series and has been moved to a new platform. The course is now presented in video format with illustrations and dynamic tests for a better user experience.
