The Social Institute of the Navy (ISM) has approved the private centre 'Centro de Formación Náutica Mistral' to provide initial specific medical training in both stationary and itinerant modes, as well as its subsequent updates (Resolution of 19 January 2026). This training is mandatory for captains, masters, and personnel in charge of onboard medical kits, and must be updated at least every five years (Art. 14 RD 258/1999). The centre must issue certification to students and submit the record to the Institute's Provincial Directorate in Cádiz within a maximum of seven days after the course ends (Fifth).
For the approved private centre, there is an obligation to submit course records to the Provincial Directorate of the Social Institute of the Navy in Cádiz within seven days of course completion (Fifth). For maritime workers (captains, masters, and medical kit personnel), the regulation ensures the availability of an authorised centre to obtain mandatory medical training and its five-yearly refresher courses (Art. 14 RD 258/1999). The Social Institute of the Navy retains the power to conduct inspections to verify the quality of the courses (Seventh).
