Our training certificates have no expiry date. This is because for our training, unlike the Basic Safety training, Proficiency in Survival craft and Resque Boat, Proficiency in Fast Resque Boat and Advanced Fire Fighting, you do not necessarily need a refresher training.
Personnel who are required to be trained in accordance with STCW regulation V/2 paragraphs 7 to 9 shall, at intervals not exceeding five years, undertake appropriate refresher training or be required to provide evidence of having achieved the required standard of competence within the previous five years. Under the Dutch flag, this can be demonstrated by 1 year of relevant sailing time in the past 5 years.
The Security Awareness, Designated Security Duties, Ship Security Officer and Company Security Officer course have an unlimited validity.
