10 Guidance and reviewing are essential to ensure
that prospective officers are fully aware of the progress they are
making and to enable them to join in decisions about their future
programme. To be effective, reviews should be linked to information
gained through the training record book and other sources as appropriate.
The training record book should be scrutinized and endorsed formally
by the master and the shipboard training officer at the beginning,
during and at the end of each voyage. The training record book should
also be examined and endorsed by the company training officer between
voyages.
