What proves that our students are ready for the industry? USCG Licensing, and STCW
USCG Licensing and STCW STCW Courses at CMA Listed in catalog Also part of MT major 70% (C-) or better to pass Non-STCW Courses But still required for major 60% (D-) ok except that total GPA of courses in major must be 75% (C) or better
USCG Licensing and STCW STCW Competencies Knowledge embedded throughout the MT and MET curriculum Only found in classes labeled STCW courses in Cal Maritime catalog Some assessments are VERY specific in nature Sample assessment control sheet
USCG Licensing and STCW Sea Time The required 360 days seatime as a cadet is credited in many creative ways: Time and a half on TSGB Commercial cruise Simulation time Campus watchstanding Small boat classes
