If you could read what's on the screen please..... Done? ok, now I will read it to you

Thursday 14th September

Day 4 now, Still enjoying it, Tuesday and yesterday were mainly taken up with lectures, although wednesdays we only have one so lots of spare time! Lectures are informative although it seems the prefered method of teaching is to read a powerpoint presentaion to us, I find this a little odd as GCSE English was a requirement fo us to start the course and therefore we are all capable of reading it for ourselves. This morning we were given an introduction to the NVQ section of our course (this runs along side of the HND and is basically us proving to the Maritime and Coastguard Agency and the Merchant Navy Training Board that we are competent in the practical aspects of being an officer of the watch.). We have been given a huge folder for our NVQ called a portfolio which we will fill in whilst at sea, its evidence gathering really. Its very specific about what tasks we must undertake before the box can be ticked!
Just getting ready for a cabin(room) inspection now, so better tidy things away.
