Before making a submission, Registered training organisations should align their submission with the following:

• Evaluations—STCW certificate of competency/proficiency and short courses—MT04
• AMSA approval of all STCW courses provided by Registered training organisations—MT05
• International Maritime Organization International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW), and the STCW Code
• Relevant International Maritime Organization Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) IMO model courses

This will assist with our approval process and reduce unnecessary costs and time delays to the training provider.
