The Joint TWG created by CHED and MARINA has comprehensively reviewed
and revised Annex C - Course Specifications for BSMT and BSMarE of CMO No.
14, series of 2018 entitled “Addendum to CMO 67 series of 2017 entitled revised
Policies, Standards and Guidelines for the BSMT and BSMarE programs” to
address the missing KUPs noted in the ECAR and to ensure that all the KUPs
under the relevant table of the STCW Code are sufficiently covered.
Based on the revised course specifications, the MHEIs were directed through
Joint CHED-MARINA Advisory No. 02, series of 2022 to review and revise their
detailed teaching syllabi in conformity with the revised course specifications to
be submitted no later than 15 May 2022. The revised detailed syllabi submitted

Year 2022-2023.
For the courses Seam 2 and Seam 6, MHEIs were also directed to acquire the
stress calculating equipment/computer and appropriate software to calculate
vessel stability and trim (applications) to address the Course Outcomes, and
other required equipment for courses identified, cognizant of the policies and
standards on carrying capacity. (Attachment 20, Attachment 20-A, Attachment
