STARFLEET Academy’s Vessel Readiness Certification Program
June 03, 2012 - STARFLEET Academy, Admiral Peg Pellerin, Director
In the ages before starships roamed space, the US Navy required that each of its ships pass a series of tests or drills in order to become certified for sea duty. A Starship, Space Station, or other Vessel should also pass inspection before it is put into service. Each department and ultimately the entire vessel can earn its certification.
This series of certifications is to be earned through th
e efforts of the entire crew of a STARFLEET Vessel. The purpose of this program is to combine the efforts of STARFLEET crews taking Academy classes (SFA or SFMCA). In the past, members took classes individually for their own edification, receiving promotion points for earning each diploma. (OTS and OCC were the only Academy courses that affected the entire Vessel.) The VRCP is designed to provide a platform in which Starfleet members can pool their diplomas for the good of the ship.
The USS Sinclair has completed and has been certified in 14 different areas/departments. See our certificates below.
