승선근무예비역제도는 미국의 사례와 같이 훈련된 우수한 승선근무예비역을 제4군으로 장기적으로 양성·예비함으로써 평화시에는 국가의 부를 축적하고, 전시, 사변 또는 국가비상시에는 국가안보를 부담시키기 위해 반드시 필요한 제도이다. 우리나라가 동북아 물류거점국가 및 해양강국으로 발전하기 위해서는 필수적인 해양 분야의 전략적 인적자원인 해기인력을 안정적으로 확보하기 위한 승선근무인력의 제4군화 제도의 정착이 반드시 필요하다. 아울러 승선근무예비역제도는 육·해·공 어느 최정예군대에 의해서도 대체할 수 없는 국가필수요원이며, 특히 국가안보와 해운력의 기초가 되는 제4군의 역할을 하는 해운인력은 양성기간이 길고 비용이 많이 소요되며, 한번 교육기반이 무너지면 복원하기 힘든 특성이 있으므로 단순한 직업인으로서의 해기사가 아니라 국가존립을 위한 국가의 사람으로서 국가 백년대계의 근간으로 간주되어야 한다.

A mariner cadet gains the ability to identify and avoid potential collisions with other ships through ARPA/Radar simulation education. This research surveyed first domestic and overseas's rules (e.g., MOMAF's Standard, the STCW Convention, etc.) of the simulation education, upon investigation the only content and timing of this simulation-based education are specified according to these rules, and maritime education institutions issue the related certification autonomously after a student has taken the simulation because no simulation education module exists to further guide the ARPA/Radar simulation. As a result, it is difficult for students to acquire consistent maritime ability through ARPA/Radar simulation. This paper discusses standardization of these education modules to produce more consistent mariner ability, and verify the degree of improvement of education that would be achieved by enacting the proposed education module. The simulation education system used in maritime institutions in Korea was investigated, and scenarios reflecting traffic flow in actual waterways was proposed based on marine traffic surveys so teaching modules can educate/assess more effectively based on core marine abilities. Improvements in education and training were also verified using data collected over 2 years based on a standardized module. Each education institution can enact an effective, systematic education approach using standardized ARPA/Radar education modules proposed in this paper, and this can set a foundation to contribute to safer vessel navigation by improving maritime abilities.

The International Convention on Standards for Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping of Seafarers (STCW) outlines the qualifications that maritime cadets must meet in order to serve as merchant marine officers. Maritime English is one of the most essential qualifications for STCW, and each national authority is implementing Maritime English education that complies with national and international regulations. In this study, an English proficiency background survey was conducted to investigate the factors related to the Maritime English skills and competencies. In line with this, maritime cadets utilized the Standard Maritime English Communication Phrases (SMCP) learning platform to track their learning progress and its efficacy. This study examined the applicability of the automatic scoring platform for Maritime English education, as well as its future potential for widespread use in the maritime education field.
