Port Facility Security Officers Training

The mandatory implementation of the requirements of the ISPS Code in all ports of the country as an international strategy for ensuring security in the ports demands the designation and accreditation of Port Security Officers (PSO) and Port Facility Security Officers (PFSO).  Training of port personnel involved in security and contingency planning for seaports and port operations personnel in the effective implementation of the ISPS Code is a pre-requisite to IMO accreditation.  Thus, there is a need to conduct this specific course of instruction for designated port facility security officers of PPA-hired and private port personnel and other personnel and those with no security duties in the different port terminals of the country. 

This 3-day course of instruction is designed to provide instruction and proficiency in compliance with the International Ship and Port Security (ISPS) Code.
