WKTM 0010 (Work Term - Fire Rescue)
This course will provide the student with practical work
experience and the opportunity to develop the competency
required of a Firefighting Recruit.
WKTM 0010 (Fire Rescue)
Prerequisites - Successful completion of all courses within the
program; Successful completion of SERT fitness test; NFPA 1001
Level I; Clear Certificate of Conduct
Duration - Students must complete a minimum work term of 384
hours duration.
WKTM 0011 (Work Term - Bridge Watch Program)
WKTM 0011 provides the student with the necessary practical
experience to develop the competency requirements of a bridge
watch rating, as outlined by STCW ’95. For most students, the
work term represents their first experience in a ship environment.
As such, they will be expected to gain an understanding of the
vessel’s operation, safety requirements, and discipline.
NOTE: To challenge Transport Canada’s Bridge Watchman
examination, the student must have accumulated a minimum
of 60 days of Transport Canada certified sea time. (Refer to
Transport Canada Document: TP2293 “The Examination and
Certification of Seafarers.”)
Prerequisites - A valid seafarer’s medical certificate is required
for all sea based work terms. In addition, the student must have
successfully completed all program courses before registering in
an approved work term.
Duration - The duration of the work term shall normally be sixty
days aboard the assigned vessel.

Mechanics)
WKTM 0100 is designed to ensure that the student gains the
practical experience to begin development of the competency
requirements of a Ship’s Engine Room Rating or a shore-based
Marine Diesel Mechanic with practical applicable knowledge.
Each successfully completed work term is regarded as one
course credit. To meet the requirements of graduation from the
Marine Diesel Mechanics Vocational Certificate Program, the
student must have successfully completed WKTM 0100.
