Under the 2010 Manila Amendments to the STCW Convention, all seafarers are required to provide evidence of having maintained the required standard of competence every five years. This mandatory updating training is essential for revalidating your MCA Certificate of Competence (CoC) and ensuring continued compliance with international maritime safety standards.
Failure to provide documented evidence of these updates can lead to vessel delays during Port State Control inspections and significant fines. At South West Maritime Academy, we offer the full suite of STCW refresher modules, delivered by expert instructors at our specialist facility.
