Introduction

This Course, Personal Safety & Social Responsibilities is designed to fulfill the

requirements of the STCW F 95. It reflects the IMO developed model Course

which was found very effective in meeting the requirements of the Convention

and implementing the associated Conference and IMO Assembly resolutions.

Preferences were made by the FTC Academic Board members with regards to the

IMO Model Courses. For that the Academic Board agrees that the IMO Model

Courses were well arranged and very effective in assisting teaching staff in

organizing, introducing and presenting their materials and in enhancing, updating

or supplementing existing training material where the quality and effectiveness of

the training courses may thereby be improved.

In such, the Outline of this Course emulates the IMO Model Course, but was

modified to facilitate the availability of facilities, resources and national policies.

Instructors are expected to follow this guide bearing in mind that their

knowledge, skills and dedications are the key components in the transfer of

knowledge and skills to those being trained.

accordingly. When necessary, the staff should provide protective equipments to trainees and

that they are aware of the location and use of the First Aid kit.
