Hi all,
My son has just completed an Edexcel BTEC level 3 diploma in Engineering (QCF) at Falmouth Marine School. We recently went on a cruise and he was given information on the Engineer Officer Cadetship Graduate/Apprentice 'specialised' route. As well as his diploma he has RYA qualifications in: Powerboat level 2 and Intermediate powerboat, Coastal Skipper and Yachtmaster Offshore, Day Skipper for Sail and Powercraft, Safety boat Certificate, and a Fire prevention and firefighting (STCW 95). Will these qualification be enough for him to take the specialised route? I don't want to waste ?77 applying for a Letter of Initial Assessment if the diploma is not a high enough qualification.
Hope you can help
Lynn
