Dear Members,
We, GlobalMET, had earlier contributed in revising the IMO model course 1.30 (Onboard Assessment) in 2017.
This IMO model course addresses the training requirements of onboard assessors. The course was specifically developed to support the implementation of the STCW Convention, 1978, as amended and in particular, regulation I/6 of the STCW Convention and section A-I/6 of the STCW Code.
IMO model course 1.30 describes six behaviours that provide a guide on what to look for during the assessment.
Intertanko and OCIMF have jointly issued "Behavioral Competency Assessment and Verification for Vessel Operators" (First edition: 2018). This best practice guide recommends that assessor training should be based upon IMO model course 1.30.
The competency framework as per the Intertanko & OCIMF guidance document consists of same behavioural competency domains as listed in IMO model course 1.30
The tanker industry recognizes that more focus should be placed on soft skills. Personnel behavior and attitude are key elements of a positive safety culture in the present day scenario. The behaviour towards job/ task needs to be carefully observed during onboard assessment.
The duration of the model course is 16 hours (2 days). The management level deck and engine officers and shore-based personnel with sufficient onboard expertise (for example, marine and technical superintendents/ vessel managers) will need to attend the course.
This opportunity can be best made use of by our members to conduct the course (Onboard Assessment) as there are a large number of officers to be trained.
If you are already running this course as we are compiling a list to inform Intertanko (Latest by 18 July).
If you wish to start it and need any help to start same, please inform secretariat and we will provide assistance.
Kind regards Captain Richard Teo (Dr Hon) FNI FCILT MAICD Executive Secretary/Director
