Description
To provide learners with the skills and knowledge to plan a voyage and conduct navigation using advanced navigational techniques and equipment, and to undertake search and rescue procedures (practical components).
Range of Variables
This module is designed to be taught off-the-job. However, it is expected that learners will have on-the-job seagoing experience covering a proportion of the learning outcomes. This module will be delivered in full-time mode.
This module is designed on the assumption that most of the learners will achieve the learning outcomes specified in the allocated nominal duration.
Delivery strategies should be selected to reflect the nature of the learning outcomes and the needs of the candidates.
Delivery strategies should build on the existing knowledge of the learner. Some areas of content may be common to more than one learning outcome, and thus integration may be appropriate which may reduce the nominal hours.
