to have (D) Workshop Service—A candidate is expected to have served not less than four years as Apprentice Engineer or Journeyman. This service must have been performed in works where steam engines, boilers, et cetera, or internal combustion engines are made or repaired. No time served before the age of 15 will be counted. Not less than two years of the apprentice time should have been devoted to fitting, erecting or repairing engines of a suitable size either in works or outside and the remaining two years may have been spent either— (a) on work of this nature; (b) at an approved Technical School; or (c) on work in other branches of the trade subject to the time allowances specified in the Schedule below—
Turning
Working in Drawing Office
Brass finishing (good heavy work)
Pattern making
Planing, slotting, shaping and milling
Boiler making or repairing work

Time spent after the age of 15 at an approved day Technical School where there is an engineering laboratory (or 14 years of age in the case of students at Junior Technical Schools) is accepted as equivalent to workshop service, usually at the ratio of three years of the former to two of the latter provided that the applicant has taken the full engineering course and can produce the Principal's certificate for continuous and regular attendance at all the approved classes and for satisfactory progress; such service cannot as a rule be accepted as equivalent to more than two years' workshop service.
Actual workshop service performed in the intervals of a college course and time spent in attending Evening Classes in Engineering at approved Technical Schools is accepted as laid down in the Board of Trade Regulations relating to Engineers in the Mercantile Marine.
