DECK CADET AND “ON-LINE TRAINING” ON BOARD OF THE SHIP

The paper is addressed to the marine officers from the Navigation section and to the students from the final year of studying who are in the training voyage, before the final exams and before obtaining the maritime certificate. The progress from the IT domain, communications and the techniques of leading the maritime ships allows nowadays the reduction of the determination time of the astronomical point of the ship. Due to the fact that IMO through STCW imposes the unification of the training way of the marine officers, no matter the country they come from, in this paper I introduce a series of notations and international standards. On their basis it can be accomplished the training of the students and of the deck officers from different countries for the on-line determination of the astronomical point.
