🔍 Key Concepts

• MMC endorsements and departments (Deck, Engine, Steward) • When a higher license can serve in a lower rating within the same department • Difference between an unlicensed rating and a licensed officer endorsement

💭 Think About

• For each choice, ask: Is the person’s MMC endorsement in the same department as the job they’re signing on for? • Does holding a higher-level deck license allow that person to legally fill a lower deck rating slot? • Is there any choice where the job title clearly belongs to a different department than the endorsement shown on the MMC?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which jobs are deck department (Bosun, Able Seaman), which are engine department (Electrician, QMED), and which are steward department (Chief Cook, F.H.). • Check which endorsements are broad enough to cover “any rating” within their department, and which are limited to one department only. • Identify the one option where the endorsement and the job are not in the same department, making it not authorized.
