INTRODUCTION
1. PQS PROGRAM. PQS is a system for qualifying officer and
enlisted personnel to perform certain duties. It is a
compilation of the knowledge and skills required to qualify for a
specific watchstation, maintain specific equipment or perform as
a team member within your unit. The PQS Program is not designed
as a training program, but provides many training objectives.
This PQS was written by fleet personnel who are currently
performing in the watchstations covered in this package and with
many years of experience. They have determined that these are
the minimum requirements for safely and effectively performing at
these watchstations.
2. CANCELLATION.
NAVEDTRA 43127.
3.
APPLICABILITY.
This PQS cancels and supersedes
This PQS is applicable to all ships.
4. TAILORING. To Command tailor this package, first have it
reviewed by one or more of your most qualified individuals.
Delete any portions covering systems and equipment not installed
in your ship, aircraft or unit. Next, add any line items,
fundamentals, systems and watchstations that are unique to your
command but not already covered in this package. Finally, the
package should be reviewed by the cognizant department head and
required changes approved by the Commanding Officer or his
designated representative. Retain the approved master copy on
file for use in tailoring individual packages.
5. QUALIFIER. The PQS Qualifier is designated in writing by the
Commanding Officer to sign off individual PQS line items.
Qualifiers will normally be E-5 or above and, as a minimum, must
have completed the PQS they are authorized to sign off. The
names of designated Qualifiers can be found on the PQS Progress
Chart. For more information on the duties and responsibilities
of PQS Qualifiers, see the PQS Management Guide.
6. CONTENTS. This PQS is divided into three sections. The 100
section (Fundamentals) contains the fundamental knowledge or
"book learning" necessary for satisfactory understanding of the
Watchstation duties. The 200 section (Systems) is designed to
acquaint you with the systems you will be required to operate at
your watchstation. The 300 section (Watchstations) lists the
tasks you will be required to satisfactorily perform in order to
achieve final PQS qualification for a particular watchstation.
Detailed explanations are provided at the front of each section.
7. REFERENCES.
The references used during the writing of this
PQS package were the latest available to the workshop at the
time. However, the most current references available should be
used when qualifying with this standard.
8. TRAINEE. Your supervisor will tell you which watchstations
you are to complete and in what order. Before getting started,
turn to the 300 section first and find your watchstation. This
will tell you what you should do before starting your
watchstation tasks. You may be required to complete another PQS,
school, or other watchstations within this package. It will also
tell you which fundamentals and systems from this package you
must complete prior to qualification at your watchstation. If
you have any questions or are unable to locate references,
contact your supervisor or qualifier. Good Luck!

INTRODUCTION TO FUNDAMENTALS (100 SECTION)
1. INTRODUCTION. This PQS begins with a Fundamentals section
covering the basic knowledge and principles needed to understand
the equipment or duties to be studied. Normally, you would have
acquired the knowledge required in the Fundamentals section
during the school phase of your training. If you have not been
to school or if you need a refresher, the references listed at
the beginning of each fundamental will aid you in a self-study
program. All references cited for study are selected according
to their credibility and availability.
2. SAFETY. Because safety is of paramount consideration, the
first subsection of Fundamentals describes the safety precautions
which apply throughout the PQS. This permits a subsequent
listing in the Systems sections of those safety precautions
unique to a given system.
3. HOW TO COMPLETE. The fundamentals you will have to complete
are listed in the watchstation (300 section) for each
watchstation. You should complete all required fundamentals
before starting the systems and watchstation portions of this
PQS, since the knowledge gained from fundamentals will aid you in
understanding the systems and your watchstation tasks. When you
feel you have a complete understanding of one fundamental or
more, contact your Qualifier. If you are attempting initial
qualification, your Qualifier will expect you to satisfactorily
answer all line items in the fundamentals before signing off
completion of that fundamental. If you are requalifying or have
completed the appropriate schools, your Qualifier may require you
to answer representative line items to determine if you have
retained the necessary knowledge for your watchstation. If your
command requires an oral board or written examination for final
qualification, you may be asked any questions from the
fundamentals required for your watchstation.

INTRODUCTION TO SYSTEMS (200 SECTION)
1. BASIC BUILDING BLOCKS. In this section, the equipment is broken
down into smaller, more comprehensible, functional "systems" as the
basic building blocks in the learning process. Each system is written
to reflect specific watchstation requirements by identifying the
equipment most relevant to one or more designated watchstanders. The
less complex systems may be identified and covered quickly or
relegated to a lower priority to permit greater emphasis on more
significant or complex systems.
2. COMPONENTS AND COMPONENT PARTS. Each system is disassembled, for
learning, into two levels. Systems have components and components
have parts. Don't expect every item appearing on a parts list in the
technical manual. Only those items which must be understood for
operation/maintenance are listed. Normally a number of very broad
(overview) systems are disassembled into their components or component
parts with the "big picture" as the learning goal. Items listed as
components in such a system may then be analyzed as separate systems
and broken down into components and component parts. Example: the
turbogenerators and switch-gears may be listed as components of the
Ship's Service Electrical Distribution System and then detailed as
individual systems on later pages for closer study.
3.
FORMAT.
Each system is organized within the following format:
It lists the references to be used for study and asks you to
explain the function of the system.
It asks for the static facts of what or where the components and
component parts are in relation to the system.
It directs attention to the dynamics of how the component and
component parts operate to make the system function.
It specifies the parameters that must be immediately recalled.
It requires study of the relationship between the system being
studied and other systems or areas.
It requires discussion of safety devices which protect the system,
as well as unique safety precautions that apply to personnel and
equipment.
4. HOW TO COMPLETE. The systems you will have to complete are listed
in the Watchstation (300 section) for each watchstation. When you
feel you have mastered one or more systems, contact your Qualifier.
The Qualifier will give you an oral examination on each system and, if
satisfied you have sufficient knowledge of the system, will sign the
appropriate systems line items. You will be expected to demonstrate
22
through oral or written examination, a thorough understanding of each
system required for your watchstation.

INTRODUCTION TO WATCHSTATIONS (300 SECTION)
1.
INTRODUCTION. The Watchstation section of your PQS is where
you get a chance to demonstrate to your Qualifier that you can
put the knowledge you have gained in the Fundamentals and Systems
sections to use. This section allows you to practice the tasks
required for your Watchstation and to handle abnormal conditions
and emergencies. Before starting your assigned tasks, you must
complete the fundamentals and systems that pertain to the
performance of that particular task. Satisfactory completion of
all prerequisite watchstations, fundamentals and systems is
required prior to achievement of final watchstation
qualification.
2.
FORMAT.
This section contains:
A.
WATCHSTATION. This is the performance portion of your
qualification. It is broken down as follows:
.1
Qualification Summary which contains:
(1) Prerequisites - items that should be certified as
completed before you can begin qualification for a particular
watchstation. The sign-off date is the date of actual
completion.
(2) Fundamentals - from the 100 section of this PQS
booklet which are required for this watchstation in addition to
fundamentals you may have completed for other watchstations.
(3) Systems - from the 200 section of this PQS
booklet which are required for this watchstation and are in
addition to systems required for prerequisite watchstations.
.2
Tasks- routine operating tasks that are performed
frequently
.3
Infrequent Tasks
.4
Abnormal Conditions
.5
Emergencies
.6
Training Watches
.7
Optional Written/Oral Examinations
B.
FINAL QUALIFICATION. Page which is used to obtain the
required initials for approval and recording final qualification
for each watchstation. This page also includes PQS ndoctrination
which is signed and dated by your supervisor after he has
explained to you how and when you are to complete the PQS and had
determined the target completion date for each watchstation.
36
3.
OPERATING PROCEDURES. The PQS deliberately makes no attempt
to specify the procedures to be used to complete a task or to
control or correct a casualty. The only proper sources of this
information are the technical manuals, Engineering Operational
Sequencing System (EOSS), Naval Air Training and Operating
Procedures Standardization (NATOPS) or other policy-making
documents prepared for a specific installation or a piece of
equipment. Additionally, the level of accuracy required of a
trainee may vary form school to school, ship to ship and squadron
to squadron based upon such factors as mission requirements.
Thus, proficiency may be confirmed only through demonstrated
performance at a level of competency sufficient to satisfy the
Commanding Officer.
4.
DISCUSSION ITEMS. Though actual performance of evolutions
is always preferable to observation or discussion, some items
listed in each watchstation may be too hazardous or
time-consuming to perform or simulate. Therefore, you may be
required to discuss such designated items with your Qualifier.
5.
HOW TO COMPLETE. After completing the required fundamentals
and systems applicable to a particular task, you may perform the
task under the supervision of a qualified watchstander. If you
satisfactorily perform the task and can explain each step, your
Qualifier will sign you off for that task. After all line items
have been completed, your Qualifier will verify Final
Qualification by initialing and dating the Final Qualification
pages.

This page is to be used as a record of satisfactory
completion of designated sections of the Personnel Qualification
Standard (PQS). Only specified supervisors may signify
completion of applicable sections either by written or oral
examination, or by observation of performance. The examination
or checkout need not cover every item; however, a sufficient
number should be covered to demonstrate the examinee's knowledge.
Should supervisors "give away" their signatures, unnecessary
difficulties can be expected in future routine operations.
This qualification section is to be maintained by the
trainee and updated to ensure awareness of remaining tasks.
