The rapid growth and development of the Philippine maritime training market caused a dramatic increase in demand for state-of-the-art simulation systems compliant with the latest MARINA and Commission on Higher Education (CHED) training requirements.

In order to enhance its range of services offered to the MET organisations in the Philippines, Transas has partnered with Philippine Lifesaving Equipment Inc., a local company with vast experience in the maritime market. Together, the companies are providing training for the Philippine market compliant with all international, as well as local, standards set by the Maritime Industry Authority of the Philippines (MARINA).
