Fifty trainees successfully completed Seacare Quality Rating Training (SQRT) 90 and 91 held in Nantong, China, from May 23 to Jun 17.

The trainees came from different parts of China, some from as far up North, as Heilongjiang and Hebei provinces.

The 4-week SQRT prepared them to speak and write practical Maritime English to facilitate work and communication as future crew on board.

The trainees also learned about the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code and the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) as part of their training syllabus.
