Successful completion will require competency in units that relate to work defined as characteristics of AQF Certificate 6:
'The application of a significant range of fundamental principles and complex techniques across a wide and often unpredictable variety of contexts in relation to either varied or highly specific functions. Contribution to the development of a broad plan, budget or strategy is involved and accountability and responsibility for self and others in achieving the outcomes is involved. Significant judgement is required in planning, design, technical or leadership/guidance functions related to products, services, operations or procedures'.
Subjects
Requirements for completion of the qualification:
A successful outcome of the twenty-eight units of competency listed below - plus be able to demonstrate competency in the eight basic engineering units also listed below.
Additional units from those listed below or relevant units from this or other Training Packages Note 5 may be included in the qualification to satisfy specific additional needs beyond the minimum requirements. (They may also be achieved separately, either individually or in skill sets, leading to a National Statement of Attainment as described elsewhere in the Training Package)
MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS
The minimum requirements for this qualification are the 28 units listed below.

Monitor compliance with legislative requirements and measures to ensure protection of the environment
An Engineer Class 1 must also be able to demonstrate competency in the eight basic engineering units listed below, either through completion of the appropriate engineering trade qualifications, or additional training and assessment, if required:
Note1:TDMMF5607A is a new unit incorporating the requirements of the previous four units TDMMF701B Observe safe working practices, TDMMF801B Comply with emergency procedures, TDMML201A Contribute to effective human relationships on board a vessel and TDMME101A Understand orders and be understood in relation to shipboard duties
Note2:TDMMF6107A is a new unit incorporating the requirements of the previous two units TDMMF1301A Manage marine firefighting and prevention activities and TDMMF2001A Prevent, control and fight fires on board a vessel
Note3:TDMMF6207A is a new unit incorporating the requirements of the previous two units TDMMF901A Fight and extinguish fires and TDMMF1201A Minimise the risk of fire and maintain a state of readiness to respond to emergency situations involving fire
Note4:TDMML407A is a new unit incorporating the requirements of the previous two units TDMML101A Organise and manage the crew and TDMMF3701A Manage vessel operations
OPTIONAL ADDITIONAL UNITS TO MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
The unitslisted below or relevant units from this or other Training Packages Note5 may be included in the qualification to satisfy specific additional needs beyond the minimum mandatory requirements (they may also be achieved separately, either individually or in skills sets, leading to a Statement of Attainment as described elsewhere in the Training Package).
Additional unit to prepare for AMSA certification as Marine Engineer Class 1 specifically applying to steamships
Note5Where units of competency are included from another Training Package, Registered Training Organisations should check the National Training Information System (NTIS) or contact the Industry Skills Council responsible for the Training Package to check if the unit has any prerequisite or corequisite requirements.
