As the government slowly starts easing out COVID-19 restrictions, Maritime Training Institutions (MTI) slowly opens their training centers for seafarers.
MARINA implemented special regulations like the blended learning mode which is a combination of online and face to face classes. This improvement helps keep our seafarers in compliance with international regulations.
Here are the lists of MARINA approved training centers. It includes their addresses, contact details, training directors and authorized courses with their license expiration.
This list only includes training institutions in Luzon area except NCR. I already made an article about training centers in the National Capital Region. You can click that link to check it out.

These training centers help decongest the number of seafarers in Manila. Similarly, its the same principle why the Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA) opens regional branches all over the country.
A few of these training centers offer only a handful of courses while others have a lot. These are satellite branches with some have their main office in Manila.
May the winds be in your favor.
