UNDERSTANDING STCW
DNV’s Maritime Academy Hellas is offering on 18 and 19 February 2025, a course on the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW).
Content
Within this course the background and general goals of the STCW Convention and Code are presented in detail. The aim of STCW is to ensure that seafarers trained and certified under its regime can meet the challenges that the shipping industry will be facing in the future. Course participants will become familiar with the structure and practical applications of the convention. The practical implications of the STCW’s requirements will be better understood. Using practical case studies the participants will learn how to achieve compliance within a management system and, using the accompanying tools, ensure the implementation of the requirements during daily work routines. The course features a lot of group work in which the participants can practice with the received input, work out the necessary contents and receive direct feedback on possible solutions.
Course Objective
Participants who already have a basic knowledge about the Standards for Training and Certification Convention (STCW), as amended, will gain a deeper understanding of it from a crewing perspective. At the end of the course participants will be able to identify required certificates by rank as well as other implications arising of the STCW Convention and Code.
In addition both general and specific training and familiarisation requirements for seafarers will be identified and discussed.
