QUALITY CRITERIA IN MARITIME EDUCATION AND TRAINING

Öz:
It is crucial to implement quality standards systems to achieve and maintain the educational and training requirements in the maritime field stipulated by the International Maritime Organization and Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping Convention and Code. In the study, the quality criteria for maritime education were determined and examined. For this purpose, in line with the literature review and expert opinions, 38 subcriteria were determined under five main criteria, and these criteria were prioritised using the Best Worst Method through the agency of 10 experts. The results of the study showed that the most fundamental criteria in the quality of maritime education and training are professional and personal development, sense of professional ethics, publication and research, and compliance with and effective use of course hours, respectively. The results of the study have also enabled educational institutions to evaluate their strengths and weaknesses in terms of quality.

DENİZCİLİK EĞİTİM VE ÖĞRETİMİNDE KALİTE KRİTERLERİ

Öz:
Uluslararası Denizcilik Örgütü ve Gemiadamlar ının E ğitim, Belgelendirme ve Vardiya Tutma Standartları Hakkında Sözleşme ve Kodu’nun öngördüğü denizcilik eğitim ö ğretim gereklerine ulaşmak ve sürdürebilmek için kalite standartları sistemlerinin uygulanması son derece önemlidir. Çalışmada denizcilik e ğitimi için kalite ölçütleri belirlenmiş ve irdelenmiştir. Bu amaçla yapılan literatür taraması ve uzman görüşleri doğrultusunda 5 ana kriter altında 38 alt kriter belirlenmiş ve 10 uzmanın yardımıyla En İyi-En K ötü Metodu kullanılarak kriterlerin önem s ıralaması yapılmıştır. Sonuçlar denizcilik e ğitim ve ö ğretiminin kalitesinde en önemli ölçütlerin s ırasıyla, akademik personel ve danışmanlık hizmetleri ana başlığı altında bulunan mesleki ve ki şisel geli şim, meslek eti ği anlay ışı, yay ın ve araştırma yapılması ve ders saatlerine uyum ve etkin kullanım olduğunu göstermiştir. Çalışma sonuçları aynı zamanda e ğitim kurumlarının kalite için güçlü ve zay ıf yanlar ını değerlendirebilmelerini sağlamaktadır.
