Description:

PPMC employees attended an immersion training at the Philippine Ports Authority PMO Northern Luzon Port in Currimao in Ilocos Norte on August 5-6, 2024.

The program focused on learning updated core concepts of port operations and providing the PPMC team with significant information on the complexities of port management and administration. This hands-on immersion is part of PPMC’s ongoing desire and commitment for the development and improvement of its operational skills. It included an orientation about marine terminal operations, basic principles of Port Operations, Cargo Handling Terminal Services, and overall port logistics, followed by a familiarization tour of the port facilities.

PPMC extends its gratitude to the management and staff of the PPA Port of Currimao, Ilocos Norte for the support and guidance throughout the immersion. We especially thank Engr. Marieta G. Odicta, Port Manager; Engr. Fernando Z. Nipal, PSD Manager; Mr. Victor V. Albano, Terminal Supervisor; Engr. Ryan B. Mercado, Supervising Engineer; Ms. Sonia B. Rojo, Admin Officer IV; Mr. Jayson A.
