Immediate Measures
2.
JCMMC No. 01 s. 2022 (Attachment 01, Attachment 01-F) requires
MHEIs to ensure that the detailed teaching syllabi contain and use
relevant and updated learning materials, appropriate laboratory
equipment, and practical exercises equipment. Further, it requires
MHEIs to ensure the effectiveness of their quality system by
guaranteeing the availability, accessibility, and use of relevant and
updated publications, to include printed/electronically formatted
instructional materials, books, and other related references,
pursuant to the standards on library holding. This will ensure that
the students will acquire the necessary KUPs prescribed by the
STCW Code.
Way Forward

CHED and MARINA will continue to conduct Capacity Building
activities for their personnel particularly in respect of evaluation
and inspection, and monitoring. These trainings will be undertaken
at least twice a year and as may be deemed necessary, to ensure
shared understanding of the requirements and manner of
implementation of policies and standards, as well as rules and
regulations. (Attachment 38, Attachment 39, and Attachment 40)
In addition, the MARINA is currently coordinating with the IMO
(Attachment 41 and Attachment 42) for another round of training
under the ITCP regarding the evaluation, inspection and monitoring
of maritime education programs.
