EGUERMIN is responsible for the naval mine warfare education and training of the Belgian and Netherlands naval forces. Most NATO and PfP countries can also take advantage of the training facilities.

The Naval Minesweeping and Naval Minehunting sections provide individual and collective education and training in classrooms and on board ships :

The Naval Minehunting section
This section is presently very much involved in the Project for Adjusting the NMCM capability (PAM) of the Belgian and the Royal Netherlands Navy. It will include new sonars, operations room and command and control equipment.  More...

The Naval Minesweeping section : Active mine countermeasures are carried out by either equipment designed to detonate or remove mines is towed or carried through the mined area, or minehunting gear is used to detect and locate mines so that they may be disposed of at once or at a later time.

In the mine display room a large collection of sea mines is displayed, including the oldest remaining mine dating from 1863 up to recently designed Manta mine. For instruction purposes some mines are opened up to visualize the sensors and mechanisms.

After modernization of the Netherlands and Belgian Mine Countermeasure Vessels, the Naval Mine Warfare Team Training Facility (TTF) has been providing instruction and expertise to prospective mine warfare personnel since inception (month 2008). The TTF has replaced the dated Naval Mine Warfare Simulator, and with comparability in the training congruence possibilities, it is not uncommon to call the Team Training Facility by its former name, the ‘Simulator’. This facility comprises three cubicles, each with six multifunctional consoles, an instructor / facilitator room with three consoles, an auditorium with one console, a technical room and a preparation room that contains three consoles. At any one time, it is feasible to provide a consortium and broad spectrum of Mine Warfare practical training relating to the Belgian and Netherlands Mine Warfare systems for up to 18 students at one time.

In the Naval Mine Warfare Gaming System (NMWGS), officers are trained in planning, conducting and evaluating NMCM operations, trough computer assisted wargames. The computer program simulates the interaction between a variety of ship types and different mine types, taking into account the specific size, signature and NMCM weapon systems of the ships, the particular settings of the mines and the environmental conditions of the area.
