    • Hi, Lemson!

      Thanks for visiting our site.

      You can find the list of schools/training centers that offer this course on this page: http://www.tesda.gov.ph/inc/tvisearch.aspx?duration=able%20seafarer

      Unfortunately, we have no available information regarding the fees and we don’t know of any related scholarship programs as of now as well.

      For those, it’s best if you’ll contact the school/training center directly so they can give you accurate and more detailed information.

      🙂
