Does a SSO/CSO/PFSO training course approved by a foreign administration satisfy the requirement for the mandatory inclusion on a STCW certificate?
The U.S. Coast Guard does not accept course approvals issued by other Administrations. The IMO STCW Convention requires that all courses are approved by the Administration (Coast Guard) and be monitored through a quality standard system. If we accepted the courses approved by Australia, we would be bound to audit the course periodically.
