(MROCP), which covers the operation of both VHF and MF/
HF equipment .
Many TAFEs and marine organisations offer courses leading

courses are not compulsory . Persons wishing to obtain the
MROVCP or MROCP 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 ACMA .
