Indeed,
competency of the crew is one major factor of customer satisfaction,
hence, the “No training, no deployment policy” of
the company is a significant consideration in our quest for
a ZERO repatriation due to incompetence.
Upon
debarkation and reporting to the office, crew is given a list
of upgrading courses he should undertake in compliance with
the STCW requirements. If the seafarer is a new hire, the more
that DOLSHIP is strict in requiring him to undergo rigid training
prior deployment.
Career growth through the carefully structured
Crewing Plan made by the Fleet Managers keeps our seafarers
on the go. On the other hand, crew briefings, de-briefings and
appraisals have helped our crew and the company relate with
each other. Aside from the aforementioned activities, DOLSHIP
also assists our seafarers reach their highest potential by
monitoring their vessel assignment, training needs and promotions.
Having in mind the needed qualities of a future officer for
everyone to emulate, DOLSHIP started its On-the-Job-Training
(OJT) Program twenty (20) years ago with its pool of young and
energetic seafarers. New graduates from the different maritime
schools are thoroughly screened, recruited and later given assignments
in the office to further enhance their skills and potentials.
Another
response of the company in ensuring a steady supply of Disciplined
, Organized, Loyal, Safety-conscious, Healthy and Internationally
accepted Seagoing Personnel is the Cadetship Training Program
(CTP). It is through this program that our cadets are exposed
to intensive and comprehensive training based on Principals’
standards and requirements. This is done by classroom education,
shipboard training and a post-training evaluation at DOLSHIP
guided by their Training Record Book.
