Ms. Eva explained that Basic Safety Training is a fundamental requirement for seafarers because it equips them with essential knowledge and practical skills to respond effectively to emergencies, protect themselves and their fellow crew members, and maintain safety onboard a vessel. She further highlighted that completing the STCW Basic Safety Training courses opens important opportunities for seafarers, including the opportunity to qualify for employment onboard ships, meet international maritime safety requirements, and progress toward further maritime training and professional certification. The training also helps seafarers develop confidence and competence in areas such as personal survival techniques, fire prevention and firefighting, elementary first aid, and personal safety and social responsibilities. Ms. Eva encouraged young people and aspiring seafarers to take Basic Safety Training seriously, emphasizing that it is not only a mandatory requirement but also an important first step toward a successful and sustainable career in the maritime industry. “Basic Safety Training is the foundation of every seafarer’s professional journey. Completing the mandatory STCW courses can open the door to many opportunities at sea and provide the essential skills needed to work safely and professionally onboard vessels." #MaritimeTraining #DMTAOnlineTV #tiktokviral #tiktokenya🇰🇪 #tiktoktanzania
