Do you have to pass the previous exam to go to the next step e.g. ZOP, ZPU 1, ZPU 2 and then? Or can you just jump in?

Unfortunatelly, there is no translation for these exams. However, to be able to apply for test ZPU 2, you have to first pass test ZOP and then ZPU1.
Also, for applying to ZVV1-3, you have to first pass ZM.
ZOP is more or less simple obedience (on leash, off leash and in group), and with going higher (ZPU1 - ZPU2) the difficulty graduates plus tracking or defence is added to the obedience. ZOP in fact means "zakladni ovladatelnost psa" which is basic controllability of the dog.
ZM is "zakladni minimum" which is "basic minimum". This is test, where all three important parts are tested - tracking, obedience, defence. Going higher (ZVV1-3) the test gets more diffiult, like the track is longer and older, more complicated, the defence is harder and more is asked in obedience etc.
