International Certificate of Competency
The International Certificate for Operators of Pleasure Craft (ICC) for users of pleasure craft was established under resolution No. 40 and No:14 of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe Inland Water Committee (UN ECE IWC). The aim of the ICC is to provide boat owners and people wishing to charter boats with an internationally recognised document certifying their competence to skipper a boat for recreational use. Although it is known as a European licence, it is accepted or required by many countries who did not sign the agreeement.
ICC s are required for pleasure craft up to 24 meters. IYT courses from Flotilla SKipper and higher are also eligible for ICC. So you can optionally ask for a corresponding ICC licence besides your IYT licence.
