Introduction

The CSSA Specialty Schools is the home of the Royal Manticoran Astro-Control Specialty School, the Royal Manticoran Merchant Marine Specialty School, and all associated instructors. Here, Astro-Control personnel, merchant spacers, and interested members of the Grand Alliance will pursue specialized coursework that will help them take on specific billets, pursue a specialized career track, or merely earn additional credentials for future use and expanded knowledge.

Royal Manticoran Merchant Marine Specialty School

The Merchant Marine Specialty School trains merchant spacers to move into a range of ship- and planet-bound specializations that support the vast merchant marine enterprise. These highly specialized course sequences allow merchant spacers to pursue one of four specialized rank sequences and/or to take on specific billets within TRMN. The four specialized departments are Engineering, Deck, Catering, and Medical, while a General Endorsement school covers a range of topics from security, crowd management, and small boat handling (coxswain).

Finally, the Merchant Marine Specialty School offers a limited opportunity to pursue course credit from ‘real world’ third-party engineering, deck, catering, and health industry courses through an External Studies program. Recommended are free courses available through the Alison.com learning management system. BuTrain has ‘pre-approved’ a number of these courses in the four areas, and each has been given a MEDUSA course name that directly mirrors the Alison course title.

Engineering Department

The Engineering Department course sequence introduces and then expands the knowledge base of merchant spacers in the area of ship-board engineering. From the entry level position of Wiper to a watch-standing engineering officer, the sequence introduces the student to the concepts of maintaining environmental systems, hydroponics, impeller and hyper drive systems, power distribution, electronics equipment, and fusion reactors.

The Deck Department course sequence introduces and then expands the knowledge base of merchant spacers in the area of deck operations and ship handling.

Catering Department

The Catering Department course sequence introduces and then expands the knowledge base of merchant spacers in a wide area of ship operations that fall outside of the other specialties. This includes training in food, hotel, and hospitality services, overseeing personnel records, manifests, and account handling in the Purser’s office, and aspects of passenger programming and entertainment.

Medical Department

The Medical Department course sequence introduces and then expands the knowledge base of merchant spacers in the area of ship-board health services and medical practice. From basic sick berth attendant and nursing skills, the course sequence introduces advanced topics for advanced, licensed medical personnel. Topics range from basic first aid and minor surgery, patient transportation, patient care, prescriptions and laboratory work, food service inspections, and clerical duties and then move to more advanced topics in care of chronic health problems, treatment of acute non-life-threatening diseases, early detection and referral to specialized care of patients with serious diseases, and preventive care including health education and immunization.

General Endorsement Department

The General Endorsement Department courses are open to personnel from all other departments. These courses are for what are normally considered ‘collateral duties’ taken on by individual merchant spacers with another regular job on the ship. From vessel security, crowd management, and small boat handling (coxswain), merchant spacers learn how to react in a crisis and take on heavy responsibilities during emergency situations.
