Section 109 of the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002 (MTSA) charged the Secretary of Transportation with the development of standards and curriculum to facilitate the education and training of maritime security personnel. This task was delegated to the Maritime Administration (MARAD) by the Secretary on April 3, 2003, and was completed, at my direction, by senior staff at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA). This Report to Congress documents the fulfillment of MARADs MTSA Section 109 responsibilities. This report contains the standards and curriculum called for by the MTSA in the form of model course frameworks for seven categories of maritime security professionals, including vessel, port and relevant law enforcement personnel who are charged with maritime security responsibilities that have become critically more important since the 9/11 attack on America. These model courses are intended as guidance for use by institutions and organizations that conduct maritime security education and training.
