Foreword

Since its inception the International Maritime Organization has recognized the importance of

human resources to the development of the maritime industry and has given the highest priority

to assisting developing countries in enhancing their maritime training capabilities through the

provision or improvement of maritime training facilities at national and regional levels. IMO has

also responded to the needs of developing countries for postgraduate training for senior

personnel in administration, ports, shipping companies and maritime training institutes by

establishing the World Maritime University in Malmö, Sweden, in 1983.

Following the earlier adoption of the International Convention on Standards of Training,

Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers, 1978, a number of IMO Member Governments

had suggested that IMO should develop model training courses to assist in the implementation

of the Convention and in achieving a more rapid transfer of information and skills regarding new

developments in maritime technology. IMO training advisers and consultants also subsequently

determined from their visits to training establishments in developing countries that the provision

of model courses could help instructors improve the quality of their existing courses and

enhance their effectiveness in meeting the requirements of the Convention and implementing

the associated Conference and IMO Assembly resolutions.

In addition, it was appreciated that a comprehensive set of short model courses in various fields

of maritime training would supplement the instruction provided by maritime academies and allow

administrators and technical specialists already employed in maritime administrations, ports and

shipping companies to improve their knowledge and skills in certain specialized fields. IMO has

therefore developed the current series of model courses in maritime security in response to

these generally identified needs and with the generous assistance of the United States and

India.

These model courses may be used by any training institution and the Organization is prepared

to assist developing countries in implementing any course when the requisite financing is

available.

Introduction

Purpose of the model courses

The purpose of the IMO model courses is to assist maritime training institutes and their teaching

staff in organizing and introducing new training courses, or in enhancing, updating or

supplementing existing training material where the quality and effectiveness of the training

courses may thereby be improved.

It is not the intention of the model course program to present instructors with a rigid “teaching

package” which they are expected to “follow blindly”. Nor is it the intention to substitute audio-

visual or “programmed” material for the instructor’s presence. As in all training endeavors, the

knowledge, skills and dedication of the instructor are the key components in the transfer of

knowledge and skills to those being trained through IMO model course material.

Because educational systems and the cultural backgrounds of trainees in maritime subjects

vary considerably from country to country, the model course material has been designed to

identify the basic entry requirements and trainee target group for each course in universally

applicable terms, and to specify clearly the technical content and levels of knowledge and skill

necessary to meet the technical intent of IMO conventions and related recommendations.

Use of the model course

To use the model course the instructor should review the course plan and detailed syllabus,

taking into account the information provided under the entry standards specified in the course

framework. The actual level of knowledge and skills and the prior technical education of the

trainees should be kept in mind during this review, and any areas within the detailed syllabus

which may cause difficulties because of differences between the actual trainee entry level and

that assumed by the course designer should be identified. To compensate for such differences,

the instructor is expected to delete from the course, or reduce the emphasis on, items dealing

with knowledge or skills already attained by the trainees. He should also identify any academic

knowledge, skills or technical training which they may not have acquired.

By analyzing the detailed syllabus and the academic knowledge required to allow training in the

technical area to proceed, the instructor can design an appropriate pre-entry course or,

alternatively, insert the elements of academic knowledge required to support the technical

training elements concerned at appropriate points within the technical course.

Adjustment of the course objectives, scope and content may also be necessary if in your

maritime industry the trainees completing the course are to undertake duties which differ from

the course objectives specified in the model course.

Within the course plan the course designers have indicated their assessment of the time that

should be allotted to each learning area. However, it must be appreciated that these allocations

are arbitrary and assume that the trainees have fully met all entry requirements of the course.

The instructor should therefore review these assessments and may need to re-allocate the time

required to achieve each specific learning objective.
