Booking an Exam
The exam is conducted by an MCA Examiner, usually on board your boat. It contains two sections: a practical assessment and an oral exam. This Tier 2 prep course is intended to help you with the oral exam. If you additionally require training toward the practical section then we can arrange for an Instructor to join you on board your employer’s vessel. Either before or after doing this course, you will need to apply for a licence. Follow this link:
