Taking into account the competences for ETOs established in the IMO STCW Convention, specifically those in section A-III/6 of the STCW Code, the training tasks included in this Training Record Book have been developed to ensure that cadets make the best use of their seagoing service by highlighting their strengths and identifying areas for further training.
It can be used by trainees to provide documentary evidence to government appointed assessors of having completed a structured training programme in accordance with STCW 2010, helps supervising officers make an objective evaluation of whether cadets are competent, and provides employers with the confidence that cadets are developing the correct knowledge needed to be successful in the role.
