According to the MAIIF report, from 1998 to 2009, 101 incidents involving entering enclosed spaces aboard ships resulted in 93 deaths and 96 casualties. IMO has therefore amended the Recommendations for entering Enclosed Spaces Entry and SOLAS 1974 Convention Chapter 3 Regulation 19, which mandates enclosed spaces entry and rescue drill on a regular basis. The training of entering such enclosed spaces should be practical, recognizing all possible risks of entering enclosed spaces aboard ships, while also considering the safety of trainees during the training. Recently, educational contents utilizing virtual reality (VR) have been applied in various fields to improve education and training effects, and these methods have proven to have advantages in actual and repetitive learning without being limited to physical space. In this study, the effectiveness, characteristics and differentiation of training of entering enclosed spaces aboard ships using VR were compared with traditional class room lectures through quantitative evaluation and questionnaires of training participants. Through the evaluation and questionnaire, it was found that participants using VR understood and learned the required training elements better than the control group, all of whom were trained through the normal class room lecture. Moreover, participants reported to display preference for training with the help of VR. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that the learning effects of VR onboard training can be used as an effective training method, especially by using video and other types of simulators.

선상에서의 승객들의 보행속도, 운항 중 피난특성, 피난시 연기농도가 미치는 영향 등 선박에서의 피난상황을 해석하는 데 필요한 몇몇 연구가 수행된 바 있다. 그러나 정전 조건에서 승선자의 피난성능에 관한 연구는 미비하여, 이론적 혹은 실험적 연구가 수행된 사례를 찾아보기 어려운 상황이다. 이에 이 연구에서는 선박에서의 인적안전피난해석 프로그램인 Maritime EXODUS를 활용하여 승선자의 분포특성을 고려한 세 가지 시나리오에 대한 피난시간을 예측 비교하였다. 이 연구에서는 선행된 운항훈련선의 선내 정전조건보행실험에서 취득한 피실험자 보행속도 결과를 반영하였다.

2015년 6월 IMO MSC 95차에서 항해설비에 표준모드 적용을 위한 S-Mode 가이드라인 개발이 2019년까지의 e-Navigation 주요개발 과제로 승인되었다. S-Mode는 주요 사용자인 항해사, 선장 및 도선사에게 표준화된 화면, 기능 제공을 통해 친숙한 업무환경을 통해 상황인식에 기여함으로써 항해안전성을 향상시키고, 교육 훈련 측면에서 선원의 부담을 경감시키기 위한 목적으로 개발 예정이다. 주요 선상사용자요구사항에 기반하여 항해설비에 표준화된 화면 및 메뉴가 적용됨으로써, 인적 측면에서의 개선이 이루어 질 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구에서는 IMO에서의 S-Mode 논의 동향을 분석하였고, S-Mode 주요 표준화 항목 도출을 위한 개발 방안을 연구하였다.

국내 해운회사의 외국인 선원 증가로 의사소통의 어려움, 작업 생산성 감소, 긴급상황 발생 시 대처곤란, 문화적 충돌이 선상폭력으로 이어지는 등 많은 문제점이 발생하고 있다. 또한, 조기하선으로 인한 젊은 층의 관리자급 해기사 부족 및 고령화 가속, 해운선사들의 저임금 외국인선원 선호로 우리나라 해기전승(해기지식의 전달) 단절 초래, IMO 권고에 따른 승선기간의 단축(규격화)으로 육상 타 직종에 비해 상대적으로 낮은 급여, 재승선의 불확실성 및 해기사의 계약직화로 인한 해상직 기피 등으로 인해 해운경쟁력 약화가 두드러지고 있다. 이 연구에서는 우리나라 해운경쟁력 향상을 위한 해결책의 하나로 한국의 우수한 선원 교육 훈련 시스템을 접목한 북한선원 양성체계 구축방안을 고찰하고자 한다.

This study suggests improvements for the effective operation of refresher courses by reviewing the target groups for each refresher course, the contents of these courses, the estimated number of delegates for each refresher course and the operation methods of training institutes overseas. Approximately 37,000 people need to complete the maritime safety refresher courses every 5 years. For the convenience of seafarers, it is necessary to reduce the land training by activating and standardizing on-board training recognized by the STCW Convention and promote investment in the training sector to continuously improve the seafarer safety training. It is also necessary to examine ways to improve the difference between the curriculums of the domestic refresher courses and the one of the STCW Convention. In addition, investments in the development of safety training facilities and virtual reality training programs are required in order to provide an environment where seafarers can take safety refresher courses in a timely manner.

In line with the transformation of the shipping industry, the number of mixed-manning ships is on the rise - bringing foreign sailors aboard with their local sailors. During on-board work, a culture is formed according to mixed-manning, which leads to changes in on-board living environment. This causes various problems such as communication problems, and lack of education and training. In order to identify and solve problems caused by mixed-manning, this study presented a plan for systematic education of foreign seafarers. The officials in charge of the affairs of foreign sailors conducted questionnaire surveys at various shipping lines. The questionnaire survey results were analyzed using the IBM SPSS Statistic 26 program. Three improvement measures were proposed to solve the problems after identification of the types of education, education methods, and problems of foreign employees. This study revealed that it is imperative to systematize related education of foreign seafarers based on the results of the survey.

Recently, renewed attention for technological applications within the maritime industry has taken place, particularly regarding unmanned vessels. There has been a lot of interest about the number of projects aiming at testing the operational feasibility of unmanned vessels, particularly in relation to technological, safety and security issues. Nevertheless, no studies have investigated this issue from the point of view of seafarers towards unmanned vessels; this paper aims at filling this gap. Data has been collected through a survey questionnaire. A Pearson correlational coefficient has been used to test the correlation between some of the variables. The results show that more than half of the respondents indicated that unmanned vessels do not contribute to an increase in accidents at sea. In addition, seafarers believe unmanned vessels will not be operational in the near future, with most of the respondents indicating a 10-20 year time frame. Thirdly, most of the respondents(both officers and ratings).
