摘要: This report describes the final phase of a research project that examined some key technical requirements of the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) Seafarer's Training, Certification and Watchkeeping Code (STCW Code), as amended in 1995. During this final phase, the issues associated with the conducting of valid and reliable assessments were examined on simulators, on training ships, and, in particular, on commercial vessels. Assessment procedures were adaptable to the circumstances of each of these settings. On commercial ships, regular officers with little training in the process and with little time to devote to preparation, conducted successful assessments using self-contained and ship-specific procedures. Thorough prior preparations of the assessment 'package' to be handed over to them were found to be a necessary prerequisite. The different assessment settings (e.g., simulators, training ships, or commercial vessels) offer different strengths for assessing proficiencies, and are discussed in the report.
