Beyond Rules, Knowledge and Skill

This paper refers to a study that was conducted in the context of a dissertation at the World Maritime University about the place of the affective domain in maritime education. The study found, through a survey, case studies and a review of the literature that this domain is considered very important in the industry. Very different methods and standards are currently employed in order to achieve educational objectives in this domain. Conclusions drawn include recognition that maritime education and training institutions (METI) need to specify these objectives and create a climate in which seafarers are trained beyond compliance for a culture of excellence and possession of desirable attitudes and values. It is recommended that associations such as the International Association of Maritime Universities (IAMU) lead the way in seeking to benchmark best practices in this context and stimulate the global Maritime Education and Training (MET) community in order to commit to this as a basis for any future legislation or setting of global standards in this domain.
