•
Table A-II/1 of Section A-II/1 of the
STCW
Code
includes
the
competence
“Monitoring
the
loading, stowage, securing, care
during the voyage and the
unloading of cargoes” and Table AII/2 of Section A-II/2 of the STCW
Code includes the competence
“Plan and ensure safe loading,
stowage, securing, care during the
voyage and unloading of cargoes”,
as well as the necessary KUPs for
this competence.
However, the syllabi of several
courses dealing with cargo work
with dangerous goods delivered
by Our Lady of Fatima University,
which
address
the
abovementioned competences, do not
require the use of the IMDG Code
for teaching cargo handling and
stowage involving dangerous
goods, as required by columns 2
of Tables A-II/1 and A-II/2 for the
competences referred to above.
Hence, the lack of this reference
material does not ensure that
the prescribed standard of
competence is achieved.
Hence, the MHEIs referred to above do not ensure compliance with the
prescribed standards of competence.
