Добро пожаловать на страницу, где вы можете пройти CES CBT CD-0277 тест (Crew Evaluation Test) онлайн по теме «Marine Environmental Awareness, Environmental Challenges» (морская окружающая среда, экология). Данная практика поможет вам, как морскому специалисту улучшить свои знания посредством электронного обучения и оценочной тренировки. Основанные на доказательных эмпирических данных и опыте морских специалистов, показательные и эффективные объединенные материалы CES/CBT тестов используются на практике в предметных областях.
Разработанные для оценки базовых знаний моряков CES тесты компании Seagull (после ребрендинга OTG) представляют собой онлайновый инструмент оценки, используемый для выявления потребностей в профессиональной подготовке, специфичных для областей знаний, определенных в ПДНВ.
В процессе отбора и набора персонала, а также для измерения уровня знаний существующих офицеров и экипажа, CES тест хорошо показал себя по всем параметрам. Ocean Technologies Group использовали для создания вопросов обширные темы, которые включают:
- Управление кризисными ситуациями и скоплением людей;
- Интегрированная навигационная система;
- Управление балластными водами;
- Обработка и укладка грузов;
- Управление эксплуатацией судна и безопасностью;
- Морская инженерия;
- Техническое обслуживание и ремонт, и многие другие темы.
Данная страница содержит вопросы Seagull CES по теме «Marine Environmental Awareness, Environmental Challenges», собранные из тестового симулятора как для проверки компетентности команды судна, так и для личного тестирования знаний.
Тема «Защита окружающей среды» включает в себя теоретическую и практическую информацию, знание которой напрямую показывает профессиональность работника, занимающего соответствующую должность на борту судна. Знание морской экологии и окружающей среды имеет решающее значение для нашей планеты и будущих поколений. Во-первых, океаны обеспечивают более половины кислорода, необходимого для жизни на Земле, и влияют на климат и погодные явления. Во-вторых, понимание экологических вызовов, таких как загрязнение пластиком и переулов рыб, позволяет разрабатывать эффективные меры для сохранения биоразнообразия и устойчивого использования морских ресурсов. Наконец, забота о морской среде помогает сохранить уникальные экосистемы, поддерживающие жизнь и обеспечивающие пропитание и средства к существованию для миллионов людей, проживающих на побережьях.
Crew Evaluation System Test на этой странице по теме «Marine Environmental Awareness» содержит 84 вопроса, на которые надо дать ответ без возможности вернуться и изменить его, поэтому, советуем внимательно читать вопрос и не торопиться. В случае с затруднениями в любом вопросе есть возможность запросить подсказку правильного ответа.
