"Training of crews onboard ships is of vital importance, as is standardisation of the training of crews from various countries operating onboard the same ship. The aim is to ensure safe operation of ships at sea and in port. Training and certification of seafarers is regulated by the Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW Convention), adopted in 1978 by the International Maritime Organisation that entered into force in 1984. Directive 94/58/EC of 22 November 1994 integrated for the first time minimum training for seafarers of the STCW Convention into EU law. In 2010, a Conference of Parties to the STCW Convention in Manila launched a comprehensive review and introduced significant amendments to the STCW Convention (‘Manila amendments’), which entered into force on 1 January 2012. The Union rules on training and certification of seafarers should continue to be kept in line with the international rules in order to avoid a conflict between the EU commitments and the international commitments of the EU Member States. It is therefore essential to transpose the latest Manila amendments into EU law."@en1
