Abstract

The study was conducted to improve the organization and its operational methodology for fire fighting safety training for seafarers. The research was participated by 828 respondents, who were taking either a basic training or a retraining with the safety curriculum, which includes fire fighting safety training. The research covered seven areas, which include satisfaction degree for each course, teaching methodology, practicality, and training environment. According to the analysis, in the portable fire extinguisher training, 89.7% of the respondents answered satisfactorily, with a satisfaction degree of 4.46 points and the domestic retraining process getting the highest satisfaction (p0.01). In the portable water hydrator training, 90.6% of the respondents were satisfied, with an overall satisfaction average of 4.48 points in the basic training course only for the difficulty level of the training (p0.05). In the fixed-type fire extinguisher training, the distribution of satisfaction was about 89.9%, and the overall average was 4.44 points. The overall satisfaction was significantly higher for the basic course (p0.05, p0.01). In fire fighting training equipment, 90.5% of the respondents were satisfied with an overall average of 4.47 points. Satisfaction was high for the basic fishing training and basic safety training, so there was a statistically significant difference (p0.01). In total, the fire fighting training was more than satisfactory with a distribution of 95.3% and an overall average satisfaction of 4.68 points. Satisfaction for the international fire fighting training was high, with a statistically significant difference (p0.05). The average satisfaction for the curriculum was high in the areas of content and quality of the training (4.45 points) and lecture methodology (4.44-4.72 points). Satisfaction for training equipment (4.42-4.63 points) and training environment (4.42-4.66 points) was relatively low.
