«Deck Management Bulk Carrier» subject includes theoretical and practical information about advanced training for work on bulk carrier. Knowledge of this information directly shows employee’s competence who holds a relevant post on a vessel. A bulk carrier is a type of cargo ship that is designed to transport unpackaged bulk cargo, such as grains, coal, ore, and cement in large quantities. These ships have large open holds, or cargo spaces, where the cargo is stored loose and not packaged. Bulk carriers come in different sizes, with some being relatively small and others being very large. Some of the largest bulk carriers can carry up to 400 000 tons of cargo.
