Abstract :
The distinctive nature of shipping is that it is carried out in an international environment involving multidisciplinary knowledge. This unique characteristic is valid at both the land-based side of shipping management issues and the navigational side involving deck operations as well as engineering operations. In both sides of shipping the basic performance indicators are closely related with the extent of international and multidisciplinary competencies. Such a distinctive nature is also to be considered in maritime education and training activities. In other words, the environment provided for such activities is to comply with the requirements of the distinctive nature of shipping. Individual learning styles and strategies is thought to be one of the requirements in question.
