	abstract = {Global maritime traffic is increasing, and the development of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) is progressing. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is developing regulations for the introduction of MASS, and aims to issue a mandatory MASS Code in 2032. In preparation for the increasing realization of MASS, research on Maritime Education and Training (MET) based on International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for seafarers, 1978 (STCW) is being conducted, however studies have not yet been carried out on the implications for MET as defined by various international regulations such as International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974 (SOLAS) other than STCW. The purpose of this paper is to capture an overview of the changes in MET that are not limited to STCW in regards to the advent of MASS by conducting a questionnaire of professional seafarers in ocean shipping companies. Cooperation was obtained from 100 captains and deck officers to clarify this objective. An analysis of the survey results indicated that â€sWatchkeeping” was the most selected item for matters related to STCW. Other results showed that Safety Management System, which is specified in International Safety Management Code, and Ship Security Plan, which is specified in International Ship and Port Facility Security Code were major points of consideration for the respondents.},
