Why take the RFPNW training? STCW requires entry level ratings standing watch in support of the navigational watch be trained and assessed in:
Steering the ship and complying with helm orders in the English language;
Keeping a proper lookout by sight and hearing;
Contribute to monitoring and controlling a safe watch;
Operate emergency equipment and apply emergency procedures.
Every rating forming part of a navigational watch on a seagoing ship of 500 gross tonnage or more, other than ratings under training and ratings whose duties while on watch are of an unskilled nature, shall be duly certified to perform such duties.
The Scuttlebutt:
Everything done very well- I attended [another program] & felt this course was more informative, easier to follow, better course material and equipment, better instructors.
