SSTP

In the first year of this B.Sc. programme (Semesters I and II), a cadet has to pass the University examinations conducted at the end of each semester (each semester is of six months duration). Only on successfully passing these examinations (Semesters I and II), a cadet is awarded the Diploma in Nautical Science (DNS) and is eligible to proceed for the ship board training. Training to become a certificated officer is a continuous process. Therefore during the 18 months of required on board training, a cadet needs to follow a Structured Shipboard Training Programme or SSTP. The SSTP has been designed so that on successful completion, a cadet is considered proficient in all the competencies required for a 2nd Mate under the IMO STCW convention as amended in 2010. After completion of 18 months of ship board training, a cadet needs to obtain a SSTP completion certificate. The SSTP completion certificate can be issued only by the same pre sea maritime training institute from where the cadet had completed his DNS course. So here we come with the PDF of all the activity work book & projects which is required to complete the SSTP.
