OPERATOR QUALIFICATIONS
Any person in Australia operating a VHF marine radio should possess at least a Short Range
Radio Operators Certificate of Proficiency (SROCP). Alternatively, operators may obtain a Long
Range Radio Operators Certificate of Proficiency (LROCP), which covers the operation of both
VHF and MF/HF equipment.
Many TAFEs and marine organisations offer courses leading to examination for the SROCP and
LROCP although such courses are not compulsory. Persons wishing to obtain the SROCP or
LROCP should first purchase a copy of the Maritime Radio Operator Handbook which is essential
reading for every boat owner in Australia.
The Australian Maritime College (AMC) provides the marine examination and certificate service
on behalf of the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA). The AMC can
provide the details of organisations and individuals offering courses and or conducting exams.
