3.2 TRAINING DELIVERY
The delivery of training should adhere to the design of the curriculum.
Delivery should be guided by the 10 basic principles of competency-based
Safety Projects International Inc standards.


The training is based on curriculum developed from the competency
standards;
Learning is modular in its structure;

Training delivery is learner-centered and should accommodate
individualized and self-paced learning strategies;

Training is based on work that must be performed;

Training materials are directly related to the competency standards
and the curriculum modules;

Assessment is based in the collection of evidence of the performance
of work to the industry required standard;

Training program is based both on and off the job components;

Allows for recognition of prior learning (RPL) or current competencies;

Training allows for multiple entry and exit; and

Approved training programs are Nationally Accredited.
The competency-based system recognizes various types of delivery
modes, both on and off-the-job as long as the learning is driven by the
competency standards specified by the industry. The following training
modalities may be adopted when designing training programs:

The dualized mode of training delivery is preferred and recommended.
Thus programs would contain both in-school and in-industry training or
fieldwork components. Details can be referred to the Dual Training
System (DTS) Implementing Rules and Regulations.

Modular/self-paced learning is a competency-based training modality
wherein the trainee is allowed to progress at his own pace. The trainer
facilitates the training delivery

Peer teaching/mentoring is a training modality wherein fast learners
are given the opportunity to assist the slow learners.

Supervised industry training or on-the-job training is an approach in
training designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of the trainee
through actual experience in the workplace to acquire specific
competencies prescribed in the training regulations.

Distance learning is a formal education process in which majority of
the instruction occurs when the students and instructor are not in the
same place. Distance learning may employ correspondence study, or
audio, video or computer technologies.
78
_______________________________________________________________________________________

-ENGINE SEAFARING Level III

Project-Based Instruction is an authentic instructional model or
strategy in which students plan, implement and evaluate projects that
have real world applications.
3.3 TRAINEE ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
This section specifies the qualifications of trainees and educational
experience. Other requirements like health and physical requirements are
also stated. Passing entry written examinations may also be indicated if
necessary.





ARRANGEMENTS
Assessment of an individual’s competence leads to the issuance of a Certificate of
Competency (COC) in the relevant unit of competency or a International Certificate
A International Certificate is issued when a candidate has demonstrated competence
in all the units of competency that comprise the relevant endorsed qualification.
A Certificate of Competency (COC) is issued to candidate who has satisfactory
demonstrated units of competency with employment opportunities but short of a fullpromulgated qualification.
1. Candidate wanting to be certified will have to be assessed in accordance with the
requirements identified in the evidence guide of the relevant unit/s of competency.
As a rule, the unit/s of competency shall be the benchmark for all assessment
under the Training Regulations for Maritime Sector.
2. Candidate must have completed the prescribed course of instruction / all the units
of competency contained in the maritime program or with equivalent sea service
experience before applying for assessment and certification for National
Certificate Level and STCW Certificate. The following are qualified to apply for
assessment and certification:
2.1. Applying for National Certification
■ Those who have completed SPI Seafarer Rating Courses; or
■ Graduates of formal education or non-formal programs; or
■ Seafarers with a minimum of 6 months to one-year sea service experience.
2.2. Applying for STCW Certification – Certificate of Competency
■
Those who have completed the Seafarer Rating Course with 2 months on
board training in a vessel of 500 GT or 750 KW on watchkeeping duties ; or
■ Those who have had at least 6 months sea service experience and 2 months
of which should be on watchkeeping duties aboard a merchant vessel of 500
GT or 750 KW ; or
■ Experienced Seafarer with one-year sea service experience onboard
merchant vessel of 500 GT or 750 KW and 2 months of which is associated
with watchkeeping duties.
3 Candidates who found to be competent under the qualification for Engine

4 Candidates for a COC on Watchkeeping shall be required to undergo assessment
using the following assessment methodologies intended for the said unit of
competency :
DEFINITION OF TERMS
1. Oxy-Acetylene
Welding (GasWelding)
a group of process done by heating the metal with gas
flame or flames, with or without pressure and with or
without filler metal
2. TIG Welding
(Tungsten Inert Gas)
an arc welding process in which metal are fused with an
arc between a single non consumable tungsten
electrode and to work
3. Acetylene
a colorless gas produced by combining hydrogen and
carbon widely used with oxygen as a fuel for welding.
4. Arc Welding
a group of welding processes where welding is done by
heating the metal with an electric arc or arcs, with or
without applying pressure and with or without using filler
metal.
5. Brazing
a group of welding processes where welding is done by
heating the base metal to a suitable temperature and
using a filler metal with a liquid temperature above 800
degrees Fahrenheit and below solid temperature of the
base metals.
6. Capillary Action
the interaction between contacting surfaces of a liquid
and a solid where the liquid surface is no longer flat.
7. Non-Ferrous
metals which contains little or no iron.
8. Metallurgy
the science of extracting metals from ores for industrial
use.
9. Oxygen
a colorless, odorless substance which supports
combustion and combines readily with other elements.
10. Soldering
a process where the metals are joined by heating to a
suitable temperature, using a solder with a liquid
temperature below the solid temperature of the base
metal.
11. MIG ( Manganese
Inert Gas)
an arc welding process done by heating to metal with
an arc between continuous, consumable, filler, metal
electrode and the work piece.

12. Shaper
is a metal removing machine. The cutting tool is moved
in a horizontal plane by a ram having a reciprocating
motion and it cuts only on the forward stroke.
13. Milling
is a power driven machine that cuts metal by means of
a multi-tooth rotating cutting. The machine is
constructed in such a manner that the work piece is fed
to a rotary cutter, instead of revolving as on a lathe, or
reciprocating as on a planner.
14. Drilling
is a removal of solid metals to form a circular hole.
15. Precision Measuring
Tools
refers to micrometer and caliper.
16. Special Measuring
Tools
Refers to sign bar, gage blocks, dial indicator surface
comparator and the entire tool which are not classified
as linear, round work or precision measuring tools.
