A mariner will be considered to have started service on the first day of their service that meets the requirements for the endorsement they have applied for. Training is considered to have started on the first day of a period of training used to qualify for an endorsement; and Mariners who apply for an endorsement based on service or training that was started on or after March 24, 2014. http://www.themaritimecenter.com/ 6
