Regulation I/6 of the Annex to the STCW Convention requires training and assessment of seafarers to be supervised and monitored in order to secure that programmes, methods and media of delivery ensure that the prescribed standards of competence are achieved. On the contrary, the inspection of March 2012 revealed that, in the Philippines, monitoring of education and training institutions does not ensure that programmes, methods and media of delivery are up to standard, since this monitoring appears to be carried out mainly by means of checklists targeting equipment, while the use of such equipment and the methodology and content of education and training are not adequately checked. This lack of effective and independent monitoring and rule-enforcing in education and training institutions also emerged on the occasion of the former EMSA inspections and was mirrored in the shortcomings detected at the schools’ level, relating to programmes, methods, use of equipment and the absence of equipment itself. Furthermore, the EMSA inspections and the analysis of the evidence submitted also suggest that in the Philippines there is still the possibility of conflicts of interests when the competency of candidates to STCW certificates is assessed. Although in December 2011 a new procedure has been adopted in this respect, it is not yet ensured that candidates for a certificate are examined by persons not having an interest in a positive outcome of their examinations.
