The current test includes Seagull CES questions on the topic of «Deck, Cadet Selection». These questions are designed to assess the competence of specialists who can help prevent accidents related to transport safety, as well as for self-assessment purposes.
The «Engine Cadet Selection» topic covers both theoretical and practical aspects of advanced training for work on any type of vessel. Engine Cadets on board are tasked with supporting the engineering team in various duties to gain hands-on experience and ensure the smooth functioning of the vessel. Their responsibilities include performing routine machinery maintenance, assisting with engine room operations, and learning to operate and monitor engine systems. Additionally, Engine Cadets actively take part in safety drills, acquire technical skills under the guidance of experienced engineers, and contribute to the overall effectiveness and reliability of the ship's engine department.
