SETS 6000 SEAFARERS EVALUATION AND TRAINING SYSTEM
Testing and evaluation of knowledge is now an important aspect of recruitment, promotion and periodic assessment of seafarers.
Assessment (and records of assessments) is an essential element of any quality management regime or safety management system.
SETS was introduced in 1995 and has been highly successful. SETS has now been redesigned and updated to SETS 6000, and includes a database of over 6000 questions.
The package has a large question database with multiple-choice questions and answers. The questions are classified according to STCW defined levels of Management, Operation and Support and are further divided into subject areas that cover each important maritime competence as defined by the STCW ‘95 Convention.

FEATURES OF SETS 6000
During a test, the questions are presented randomly but chosen according to criteria of rank, STCW level and subject.
Quality and appearance of questions are enhanced by the use of relevant photographs, sound and graphics.
Answers are marked automatically and printed if required.
Scores from one candidate can be assessed against others using the same criteria.

SETS 6000 is very easy to use for the applicant and very little previous computer knowledge is needed.
The Administrator has complete control of the test settings but predefined tests can be locked from editing.
• Exceptional facilities for showing test results and production of reports.
• Optional facility to print paper tests.
• SETS 6000 is fully network capable.
SETS 6000 has a large database of multiple-choice questions containing over 6000 questions. The questions are classified into the STCW competence levels of Management, Operation and Support and are also structured in accordance with the STCW Code. This structuring makes it possible to generate quality-verified tests suitable for a wide range of seafarers. Quetions range widely across the seven STCW functional areas, and include non-STCW subject areas.
The SETS 6000 question database was produced under the supervision of Videotel Marine International and all questions were designed and controlled by experienced maritime professionals. The package is ideal to assess competence as defined by the STCW ‘95 convention and can be used for:
assessing competence of applicants
• assessing training requirements
• assessing qualifications of crew onboard ships
SETS 6000 can be supported by a question designer that makes it possible for users to design their own questions, adding pictures, animations and sound to any question. The question designer allows the design three types of question, these are:
• multiple choice questions
• fill in missing word
• essay type questions
The package automatically marks the first two types whereas the Administrator manually marks the latter. The question designer is a powerful facility allowing users the unique opportunity to create completely customised questions and answers. So testing on any aspect of company policy or procedures can be easily built into SETS 6000.

SET UP OF TESTS AND EXPORT OF TESTS
The SETS 6000 Administrator program can be easily set up to produce any combination of tests by questions from one or several STCW functional areas and from any of the three STCW competence levels. When a test is given, the questions from each including subject are automatically and randomly selected. Choose from over 6000 questions.
Tests can be exported to remote SETS 6000 installations thereby making it possible for main offices to standardise assessment at all their recruitment centres.

TEST RESULTS AND EXPORT OF TEST RESULTS
SETS 6000 includes three types of result reports and a summary report presenting multiple test results in one datasheet. All reports in SETS 6000 can be directly converted to suitable file formats and transferred by fax or by e-mail via the Internet. Test results can be exported in groups and imported into SETS 6000 installations at other sites. This makes it possible for “head offices” to compare test results from different recruitment centres or training facilities.
