Description
The Security Awareness Training is known in Brazil as the CFPN. This training can correspond to two IMO Model Courses depending on whether the Seafarer has Designated Security Duties or not. These are:
- Security Awareness Training for Seafarers with Designated Security Duties – IMO Model Course 3.26
- Security Awareness Training for All Seafarers – IMO Model Course 3.27
Prior being assigned ship board duties, all seafarers employed or engaged in any capacity on ships to which the ISPS Code applies should receive security related familiarization training. The familiarization training is performed by the Ship Security Officer or an equally qualified person and provides guidance for the seafarers so that they are at least able to:
- Report a security incident;
- Know which procedures to follow when they recognize a security threat; and
- Take part in security-related emergency and contingency procedures.
These procedures should be included in the Ship Security Plan and may also be included as part of the shipboard familiarization checklist.
NOTE: The course lectures, handouts and workbook are all in Portuguese. The training provided is in accordance with international standards as required by the IMO in the STCW convention; however it is tailored to the requirements set out by the Brazilian Maritime Authority.
Target Audience
Seafarers that require security awareness training that do not have designated security duties and are not officers.
Objective
This course is specifically for Non-maritime Professionals working on board vessels. The Brazilian Maritime Authority offers two versions of this course based on whether the participant is qualified as a Maritime Professional, such as officer in the Navy or Merchant Marine, or not.
