If you opt to do subjects in items 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 at the Class 1 level instead of the Class 2 level, you would not have to go through them again when you appear for the Class 1 Marine Engineer Certificate of Competency exam.
Should you choose to do these subjects at the Class 2 level, then you would need to do them at the higher level when you return for the Class 1. The class is a combined one though students appear at different levels.
After you qualify the Class 2 Marine Engineers Certificate of Competency, you would need to accumulate the requisite sea-time to be eligible for the Class 1 Marine Engineer Certificate of Competency.
If you have cleared the subjects mentioned above (items 3 to 7) at the Class 1 level and have requisite seatime whilst holding Class 2 Marine Engineers Certificate of Competency, then Maritime New Zealand would grant you eligibility to do the following for Class 1 Marine Engineer Certificate of Competency:
1. Command Principles & Practice (Management) 2. Marine Control 3. Engineering Knowledge & Orals (at Class 1 level)
