The study aimed to evaluate the utilization of the Seamanship 2 workbook. The study focused on the workbook’s content. Specifically, it highlighted the alignment of its core aspects; like, learning objectives, coherence, concepts and processes and learning activities. The teachers’ teaching performance and delivery of classroom instruction under the course were also covered in the study. Purposive sampling was used to gather responses that involved 127 fourth-class Deck cadets of both the International Maritime Employers Council (IMEC) and International Mariners Management Association of Japan (IMMAJ) Campuses. The academic year covered the second semester of Academic Year 2020-2021. Data were gathered from respondents using a survey questionnaire administered online. Furthermore, data were examined using descriptive statistics, frequency, and percentages. The findings revealed that most of the students asserted that the SEAM 2 workbook’s content was aligned in terms of learning objectives, coherence, concepts and processes and learning activities. Furthermore, students agreed that the teacher was able to teach well and deliver classroom instructions with appropriate teaching techniques and methodologies.
