Circular Letters

The IHO Secretariat communicates important information to Member States (MS) via Circular Letter (CL). Some CLs invite Member States to provide feedback to the Secretariat (e.g. approval of new editions of IHO Standards). In cases where MSs are invited to provide feedback via online form, the link to the form will be included in the CL. Further information is provided in CL 20/2019). All previous years CLs are available from the IHO searchable HERE. ________________ Spanish Circular Letters are available HERE

IBSC44 (2021)

The IBSC (The Board) acknowledges that these are challenging times due to the COVID-19 pandemic and encourages all institutions to prioritize the well-being of staff and students as they manage their particular circumstances to deal with disruptions to their normal teaching strategies for their recognized programme(s). The Board recognizes that teaching delivery strategies will likely need to be changed as institutions implement essential changes to comply with official directions from authorities. The Board requests that any modified teaching strategies seek to maintain the appropriate level of the applicable Standard and asks that significant changes be referred to the Board for its consideration of the need for guidance or assistance with continuing recognition. This acknowledgement should not be construed as the Board seeking to override national or local official directions.
