You could try this site

http://www.nmm.ac.uk/server/show/nav.005002006000003


Also Google Merchant Navy History.

National Archive also has a site.

My husband is a ret. MN officer and apprenticed to a shipping co. had to study at sea and go to lectures etc. during his leaves .

The School in London still exists(Sir John Cass) but I believe no longer has MN course .Others existed in Newcastle and I believe Dr. Bernardo's also has a training school.Engineers up to around the 1960-70's trained in the Dockyards first and then went to sea. Apprenticeships for Engineers came in around this time. Their exams were taken at the colleges ,after they had completed so many days actually at sea.

Hope this helps.

P.S when my husband went up to sit his masters ,I knew as much about Ships Law as he did!
