“…A well-grounded consideration of the specifics of project-oriented management in the practice of efficient crewing for marine vessels requires a comprehensive approach (Kalvaitienė and Senčila 2019;Senčila and Kalvaitienė 2018;GMF 2018): a systemic and comprehensive analysis of the results of management and practice on marine vessels; identification of regular relationships; determination of specific conditions and problems; development of dynamic structure and The development and implementation of a projectoriented management strategy in the practice of an efficient crewing for marine vessels should take into account the directions of change and be implemented using new management technologies (Strack et al 2014), namely the development of strategies for the formation of competencies for the implementation of strategy, relevant organizational changes and the formation of a system of motivation according to a specific strategy (Blickstein et al 2016). The fulfillment of human resources management tasks depends not only on the perfection of its development by the management of the crewing company, but also on the strategy implementation by the executives.…”

Motivation: More than 70% of accidents in the fleet are due to the "human factor"-a wide range of psychological and psychophysiological qualities of the person, which in some way affect the result of its operations. Statistics of major ship accidents in recent decades show that not a single element of the shipping system is aloof from them. That is ship crews, shipowners, charterers, consignees, classification societies and other organizations associated with maritime transportation form a "chain" of risk. The correct combination of human abilities and machine capabilities significantly increases the efficiency of the "person-machine" systems and determines the optimal use by a person of technical means for their intended purpose. Unfortunately, an adequate model that would allow both quantitative and qualitative optimization of the project team, especially in conditions of incomplete determination of the volume of work, today does not exist. In addition, the existing methods do not take into account the specifics of the formation and conditions for the implementation of projects by such teams as the ship's crew, namely the increased level of danger, the inability to make replacements during the voyage, the international composition, the language barrier, etc. In this context, the issue of human resources management as a basic element of achieving the efficiency of project implementation in the field of maritime transport is also urgent, which implies an emphasis on the problem of project-oriented management of crewing and activity of the crew of marine vessels. The issue of clarifying the role, importance and key elements of HRM strategies and policies in the implementation of these projects requires special consideration. The aim of the study is to develop methodological approaches for the forming of quantitative and qualitative composition and effective management of project teams, as a variable component of the project management system of marine vessels. Novelty: Develop methodological approaches for the quantitative and qualitative composition of project teams, as a variable component of the project team on the example of crews of marine vessels. The task of acceptability of the structure, quantitative and qualitative composition of the team was solved. The terminological base of project management was developed by more clearly defining the concepts of "project team" and "project management team". The approach to the organization of the crewing company recruitment system to work on ships was proposed. Methodology and Methods: In this scientific research to achieve the objective and test the hypotheses suggested in the research paper was used: 1) project teams methodology in project management, in particular, the Project Management Institute Classification (2017) of types of teams in the organizational structure of complex projects and in their management and the taxonomy of SNCB Version 4.1 are designed to provide a comprehensive professional assessment of the level of training of project managers; 2) metho...

“…For example, Generation Z can bring additional benefits in solving an industry's recent major problems relating to information overload. this generation can be trained from an early stage to categorise a lot of information quickly (Sencila, Kalvaitiene, 2018). After observing the behaviour and attitudes of Generation Z in the workplace, researchers (Barnes & Noble college, 2015) found that:…”

Every country’s economy depends on workforce competencies that are developed mostly by education systems, in which institutions of higher education play an important role. With the spread of higher education and the continuous development of opportunities for lifelong learning, higher education institutions are facing challenges organising education by addressing the needs and preferences of different generations. As research shows, different generations have various learning preferences, needs and goals in life, and education. To organise teaching and learning activities effectively (now and in the future), educational institutions need to understand the characteristics of the multi-generational student population, and the tendencies in future changes to the student population. This is important for many industries, including the maritime industry. To supply young talent to the maritime industry, maritime education and training also need to take into account the future workforce and the needs of industry, in terms of new challenges, such as technological changes, sustainability goals, decarbonisation, and the blue economy. This paper presents an analysis of the changes in the student population at the World Maritime University higher education institution over the last five years, with a special focus on Generation Z. Insights into the organisation of effective education to address the needs of the maritime industry are presented based on the tendencies identified.

The paper reveals the potential and importance of training specialists in the field of maritime and river navigation. The trends of the modern educational process applicable to educational institutions of the maritime and river transport industry are considered. The trends of psychophysiological health and behavior among students of educational institutions of the transport industry are considered, the analysis of available studies on the state of psychophysiological health and behavior of officers of the merchant and navy is also carried out. The research revealed data on important changes and positive trends in the development of the modern educational system applicable to educational institutions of the transport industry, studied the issues of compliance of students' preparation for the difficulties of future professional activity, as well as the impact of the lack of proper attention to the psychophysiological health of ship and ship crews on their personal qualities. The ways of preventing harm to the psychophysiological health of students of institutions of the marine industry are considered. The conclusion is made that the identified trends are applicable to the industry leader of the GMU named after Adm. F.F. Ushakov.
