Read the perspective ↗Professional participation
Operational experience in industry dialogue.
The Passenger Vessel Association (PVA) connects TPWC with the passenger vessel operating community. John Scannell serves as a member of the PVA Regulatory Committee and the PVA Cybersecurity Committee. That participation provides a forum for practical discussion on safety, regulatory challenges and the needs of operators. Membership and professional participation do not imply PVA endorsement of TPWC.
