EXAMINATION AND ASSESSMENT OF COMPETENCE
PHILIPPINE MEASURES
KEY AREA 3
Immediate Measures
Given the above and in reference
to Bullet 2 of Grievance 13, the BOE
could ensure that the approved
scenarios under Table A-II/1 and AII/2 of Sections A-II/1 and A-II/2 of
the STCW Code for the functions
‘Navigation at the Operational
Level’ and ‘Navigation at the
management level’ are relevant to
the assessment outcomes and are
in line with the requirement of “an
assessment
of
performance
(taking into account) normal
shipboard
procedures”
as
prescribed in the Section A-I/12.8.4
of the STCW Code.
Likewise, the BOE could ensure
that the tasks described in the
simulator scenario specifications
achieves the requirement of
competence “Plan and conduct
and passage and determine
position” under Table A-II/1 of
Section A-II/1 and competence
“Plan a voyage and conduct
navigation” under Table A-II/2 of
Section A-II/2 as mentioned in
Bullet 3 of the same Grievance are
now consistent with the actual
required performance imposed on
the candidates and that all tasks
are performed.
In addition, the assessment
scenarios
for
the
practical
assessment of deck officers and
masters are now different from one
another in terms of tasks and
assessment outcomes.

Additionally, as part of the
documentary
review
and
inspection, the Board of Examiners
can
thoroughly
review
and
evaluate the performance and
assessment criteria of every
practical assessment scenario.
This ensures that all practical
assessment scenarios approved by
the
Administration
have
appropriate
performance
and
assessment criteria ensuring that
the relevant assessment outcomes
are measurable and amenable for
evaluation.
Moreover, the BOE could ensure
that all assessment outcomes
defined in the specifications of the
corresponding
assessment
scenarios are covered.
As such, the inconsistencies
stated under Grievance 13 Bullet 1,
2, 3 and 4 were addressed with
the use of the approved Criteria
for
Evaluating
Practical
Assessment
Scenarios
(Attachment
47),
evaluated
through the use of “Form AD-41:
Practical Assessment Scenario
Validation Form” (Attachment
48), which serves as a basis for the
formulation
of
practical
assessment scenarios which will
be discussed in the succeeding
actions taken.
