Independent study. xplor is not affiliated with the French maritime administration (DGAMPA), the ENSM or any préfecture maritime, is not an approved bateau-école or training centre, and awards no title, permit, certificate or endorsement. Engineering modules, revalidation tests and stages can only be taken at centres approved by the French maritime administration, and only the DIRM or the RIF guichet unique can issue a brevet, a visa or a dispensation; nothing here counts towards any of them.
