Delivery of PMP Module 7, Cycle 2 in the Philippines

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]TrainForTrade, in cooperation with the Philippine Ports Authority (PPA) local organising committee, will deliver Module 7 of the Modern Port Management Course from 19 – 23 June 2017 in Manila. 24 middle managers from the port communities of the Philippines who are enrolled in the UNCTAD TrainForTrade Port Management Programme will participate in the course.

The module will be delivered by local instructors from PPA who have been certified by TrainForTrade as local trainers. The seventh of the eight training modules examines the  administrative and legal management of ports.  A dissertation simulation will also be organized in order to prepare the participants for their upcoming  Mock Defense in July

The Philippines is currently undergoing the second cycle of the Port Management Programme. Each training cycle lasts 16 to 24 months and comprises 240 hours of in-class training and a final thesis. The course deliveries are led by UNCTAD and international instructors (Irish port experts), as well as local senior managers who have completed the training-of-trainers workshop. This strategy highlights the uniqueness and strength of the TrainForTrade Port Management Programme in fostering local ownership to reinforce its impact and ensure sustainability. Local ownership of the programme is achieved through a financing scheme that requires the participating ports to provide the majority of the programme’s funds, and by gradually shifting responsibility for implementing the programme from UNCTAD to the participating ports.
