TRAINING AND WATCHKEEPING 

List of competent persons maintained by the Secretary-General 

pursuant to section A-I/7 of the STCW Code 

1 Under the provisions of the revised STCW Convention and the STCW Code, the 

Secretary-General has been assigned certain functions, particularly with regard to information 

communicated under article IV and regulation I/7 of the STCW Convention and section A-I/7 of 

the STCW Code. 

2 Among these functions, the Secretary-General is required to maintain a list of 

competent persons approved by the Maritime Safety Committee, including competent persons 

made available and recommended by Parties, who may be called upon to assist in the 

preparation of the report required by regulation I/7, paragraph 2. 

3 To this effect, the Maritime Safety Committee, at its sixty-eighth session 

(28 May to 6 June 1997) approved a list of competent persons to be maintained by the 

Secretary-General (MSC/Circ.797). At its subsequent sessions, the Committee approved 

additional competent persons and issued revisions of the circular (MSC/Circ.797/Rev.1 to 19). 

4 The attached list has now been updated to incorporate competent persons 

approved by the eighty-eighth session of the Maritime Safety Committee (24 November 

to 3 December 2010). This list will be expanded and updated at any session of the Committee 

where nominations are submitted for approval. Reference should be made to Circular 

letter No.1882 dated 3 April 1996 for the format to be used when submitting nominations that 

should only be made by Parties to the STCW Convention but may include non-governmental 

experts in the maritime industry. 

5 Competent persons may be identified as having knowledge of the system of training 

and certification in a country other than the Party that submitted their nomination. As far as 

practicable, competent persons will not be assigned to panels invited to evaluate information 

communicated by that country, for the purposes of meeting the requirements of section A-I/7, 

paragraph 6, of the STCW Code, if that country objects to such appointments. 

6 Pursuant to section A-I/7 of the STCW Code, the Secretary-General will call upon 

individuals identified in the list of competent persons approved by the Maritime Safety 

Committee to assist in evaluating information communicated by Parties under article IV and 

regulation I/7 of the STCW Convention, as amended, as well as in the preparation of the report 

required by regulation I/7, paragraph 2, thereof.

7 Parties to the STCW Convention, which have nominated persons to serve as 

competent persons, are requested to inform the Secretary-General whenever any of those 

persons is no longer available to serve in that capacity, so that they may be removed from the 

list.
