This document discusses the differences between competencies and learning outcomes. It provides examples from the STCW Convention and Code. A competency is a general statement describing the desired knowledge, skills, and behaviors a student should have after completing a program. An outcome is a specific, measurable statement of what a student will be able to do. The document demonstrates how competencies in the STCW Code relate to defined learning outcomes for seafarers. It aims to help trainees identify the distinction between competencies and outcomes.

Activity aims This activity aims to enable trainees to connect the learning outcomes with specified competence.
In this activity, the instructors are recommended to demonstrate the
differences between the competences and outcomes.
The trainees will be able to identify the key distinction between learning outcomes and competence.
It is suggested that the competence tables of the STCW Convention and
Code should be provided to indicate the connection between competence and learning outcomes. What is Competency? A general statement that describes the desired knowledge, skills, and behaviors of a student graduating from a program (or completing a course). Competencies commonly define the applied skills and knowledge that enable people to successfully perform in professional, educational, and other life contexts. What is an Outcome? A very specific statement that describes exactly what a student will be able to do in some measurable way. There may be more than one measurable outcome defined for a given competency. Differences between the competences and outcomes Competency:
A statement that describes the desired knowledge, skills, and
behaviours of a student after completing a course
Outcome:
This describes exactly what a student will be able to do in some
measurable way (STCW) Code The Standards of Training, Certification & Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) Convention established a code adopted by many nations on July 7, 1978 and was named the Seafarers Training, Certification, & Watchkeeping (STCW) Code. It certifies that the holder meets STCW standards of competence in specific functions related to safety, care of persons, or cargo. ... Under the STCW Convention, all seafarers need to meet minimum standards of competence, age, medical fitness, and approved sea-going service. STCW certification It was created to promote safety of life and property at sea and to protect the marine environment. It establishes internationally accepted standards of training and certification of seafarers, ensuring that crew are qualified and fit for duties at sea. AS per STCW CONVENTION AND CODE:
Competency: Safety Awareness (Example), is described as follows:
Student develop a thorough understanding of themselves across multiple dimensions. performing their jobs in a safe manner and without risk to their health or that of their fellow workers.
Learning Outcomes: Students who demonstrate competence in safety-awareness
can: • Company Safety Policy • Understand, Explain Fire triangle and how to extinguish. • Wearing SCBA demonstrate • Identifying hazards and mitigating. THANK YOU
