I have tried to find out how the freighter guys do their license conversion. To be honest I don\'t know. When I was going through Adelaide a number of years ago there were some freighter guys there attending classes but none of the rest. Maybe some recent freighter guys would like to help out here.
I would imagine the training is similar in length to that of an SO which is 5-6 months from date of joining.
Finally I would like to help you with "IOE" but I have no idea what it means.
