- Basic STCW’95+10 refresher training is now mandatory every five years.
- This is a 1.5 day course of practical training for Personal Survival Techniques and Basic Fire Fighting.
Please note: The STCW refresher course will take 2.5 days if you are unable to provide the PST self-declaration form
Certification You Will Achieve
All successful graduates receive a Certificate of Updated Proficiency in Fire Prevention and Fire Fighting and Personal Survival Techniques. This certification is authorized by the Marshall Islands and recognized by the MCA, 25 governments, and all major crew placement agencies.
Please note: that not all flag states accept STCW certification from other flag states (such as the United States) so please check with your flag state (original STCW course provider) before taking STCW refresher courses.
This course will not result in an AMSA STCW refresher ( certificate of ongoing assessment ).
AMSA STCW Holders
This course is a Marshall Islands Refresher Course. If you hold an Australian AMSA COST STCW95 certificate you will need to refresh your certificate where you completed your original training.
