ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

ISO/PAS 23678-4:2020(E)
Introduction
The industry recognises that a major objective is to prevent accidents and incidents from occurring. A
global network of competent personnel employed by authorized service providers is vital for lifesaving
appliances to remain fit for purpose, sustaining crew confidence and contributing to the prevention of
incidents and accidents.
It has been recognized from the new requirements in IMO Resolution MSC.402 (96) for maintenance,
thorough examination, operational testing, overhaul and repair of lifeboats (including free-fall
lifeboats) and rescue boats (including fast rescue boats), launching appliances, and release gear
(henceforth referred to as "the IMO Requirements") adopted 19th May 2016 and entering into force 1st
January 2020, that it is necessary to develop an International Standard. This necessity is based on the
requirement in paragraph 7.1.1 of the IMO Requirements:
"Employment and documentation of personnel certified in accordance with a recognized national,
international or industry standards as applicable, or a manufacturer's established certification programme.
In either case, the certification programme shall comply with section 8 for each make and type of equipment
for which service is to be provided;"
This document and the associated ISO/PAS 23678-1, ISO/PAS 23678-2 and ISO/PAS 23678-3 have been
developed to achieve three key objectives.
1. The first objective was to develop training documents that would support the IMO Requirements,
section 7, paragraph 7.1.1.
2. The second objective was to develop training documents that would provide a consistent, reliable,
and standardised approach to training and provide a clear auditable trail for interested parties to
grant authorisation supporting the IMO Requirements, section 3, to approved service providers.
3. The third objective was to develop training documents that would enable personnel certified by
authorized service providers to develop and maintain competencies identified by industry experts
to a level that enables them to competently work unsupervised on equipment covered by this
document.
This document has been developed by identifying common design features in relation to survival craft,
davits, winches and release gear makes and types for which service is to be provided. This has been
achieved by conducting professional discussions with disciplined experts, to obtain the appropriate
information to develop a training programme that is fit for purpose. Successfully completing
ISO/PAS 23678-2, ISO/PAS 23678-3 and ISO/PAS 23678-4 enables personnel certified by an authorized
service provider to meet the IMO Requirements, section 7, paragraph 7.1.1, and section 8.
The ISO/PAS 23678-series on service technician training consist of:
— Part 1: Guidance to training providers; describes the competence route of the candidate and the
resources that the training provider needs to deliver the training.
— Part 2: Initial training; describes the training programme for initial familiarisation and induction
training that is classroom education. The training programme focuses on introducing individuals
to the complex terminology, rules and regulations, organisations, health and safety that a service
technician needs to understand in order to carry out their role.
— Part 3: Level 1 training; describes the controlled environment education and training delivered
at a training school. The training programme focuses on the technical training for type specific
lifesaving appliances.
— Part 4: Level 2 in-field competence; describes the requirements for initial in-field and ongoing
competence assessments.
NOTE ISO/PAS 23678-1, ISO/PAS 23678-2 and ISO/PAS 23678-3 are referencing typical in-house/training
school training programmes. ISO/PAS 23678-4 is typical in-field performance of the personnel trained and
