Grades of Malaysian Certificate of Competency

As I have mentioned early Certificate of Competency are divided into two (2) departments. The first one known as Deck Department and the other is Engine Department. This separation are mainly to cater the job-scope onboard which the deck officer are in charge overall on bridge and deck areas whereas the engineer has to do maintenance and monitoring main engine, auxiliary engine, boiler, generator, etc…


Here are the lists of CoC’s grade by ranking issued by the Marine Department Malaysia:
