COURSE DESCRIPTION

Why choose this course?

Get qualified for a maritime career working as a master or chief mate on vessels less than 500 gross tonnage. During this course you will experience fighting fires in simulated environments, practicing in-water survival skills and rescuing others in distress. You will also learn how to tie seaman’s knots and hitches to ships in rough waters.

This course will develop your leadership capability to lead and manage a crew on any size vessel. You will gain the skills to instruct the ship’s crew on watchkeeping, wheelhouse operations, environmental management, routine maintenance, record keeping and logbooks, communications and stability.

On successful completion of this course you will be able to perform the duties or functions of:

a master on vessels less than 24 metres (foreign going); a chief mate on vessels with less than 3000 gross tonnage (GT); a master of commercial vessels with less than 500 gross tonnage (GT); and a mate on vessels with less than 500 gross tonnage (GT). Please note the Maritime calendar differs from the standard TAFE WA semester calendar. Semester dates are stated in your Letter of Offer.

This course is a full-time program that is timetabled over 4 to 5 days per week. This means you will have a very heavy study load which will encroach on your personal commitments during weekdays over the course of the program. The timetabled hours per week are essential to ensure all course requirements are met.
