GAO has reviewed the Federal program for training deck and engineering officers for the U.S. merchant marine, in response to congressional requests. (See p. 1.) Specifically, GAO reviewed the employment placement records of Federal and various State maritime academies and gathered available information to determine whether expenditure of additional Federal funds for the education of deck and engineering officers is justified.
