Under the new STCW 2010 requirements, every five years, updated proficiency training in Fire Prevention and Firefighting will need to be completed.

The aim is to give all those seeking updating/ refresher training certification for fire prevention and firefighting the essential education and training set out in Table A-VI/1-2, of the STCW Code.

Section A-VI/1 of the STCW Code (paragraph 3) states that ‘Seafarers qualified in accordance with paragraph 2 in basic training shall be required, every five years, to provide evidence of having maintained the required standard of competence, to undertake the tasks, duties and responsibilities listed in column 1 of table A VI/1-2.’
