MCA Engineering Courses
MCA Approved Engine Course 1 (AEC 1) - this 5 day course is seen as the first rung on the engineering ladder for those with no formal marine engineering experience and is an ideal introduction for those who wish to improve and enhance their employment prospects in the various aspects of the marine industry. It is a very hands on practical course where students work on a variety of marine engines.
MCA Approved Engine Course 2 (AEC 2) - The MCA have recently introduced a new course, MCA Approved Engine Course 2 (AEC 2) as part of the small vessel engineer training programme. This new scheme is designed so that engineering qualifications will be transferrable between different industry sectors (yachts, workboats, tugs, fishing vessels etc) and will no longer have offshore limits.

Philip Pearson
Thoroughly enjoyed this course (AEC Level 2), a good stepping stone for furthering a career in the marine engineering industry. The instructor we had was very professional and made the course enjoyable as well as informative. The admin was good and the training aids were good for the course, things will be improved even further when they move to bigger premises. I will look forward to training with them in the future.

I did (and passed) my one day VHF course and exam at Emsworth School of Navigation. The teaching was at just the right level for our group, focussing not just on the required elements, but useful real world tips as well (with plenty of opportunities to ask questions). Would highly recommend.
