The AEC 2 is the second half to the full AEC qualification. It is a 35 hour, 5 day enhanced course.

The aim is to give the basic training to the engineer officers who want to pursue a career on ‘Small Vessels’. The necessary training outlines the certification structure, examination and training requirements. It also explains the regulatory requirements regarding the implementation of intended training elements. 

The objective of this AEC 2 course is to provide students with theoretical knowledge and practical hands on experience of additional areas, as laid down in the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) AEC 2 syllabus. The aim is to enable them to meet the CoC requirements of the new common “small vessels”.
