Cristal e-College’s quest for excellence has gone way farther than it had been before. ISO accreditations, CHED and TESDA approval and commendation of high standard programs, constant boost of sponsors and investors coming in, continuous increase of population, overwhelming improvements of facilities, name it all. Ce-C got it all for you!
Recently, Ce-C acquired another addition to its first-class facilities—an estimated P7.5 million ship simulator, designed for education and procedural training for Deck and Engine Cadets. It allows trainees to survey and learn safety procedures before it is done in real life like maneuvering ships at different environments and locations. The simulator is ideal for collaboration and teamwork training in the same manner to expose them in actual modern vessel setting.
Among the 93 maritime institutions in the country, Ce-C enlisted itself as the 7th to acquire the new technology, with the most advanced and modern in terms of hardware and software. This state of the art equipment is expected to give Ce-C maritime students an edge in the MSAP examination not only in the written test but also in the actual assessment in simulator operation. In an interview of The Phoenix with the Maritime Superintendent Capt. Teresito Alon, MM, he stressed that the college is really dedicated to provide world-class facilities to promote the school’s dictum of Excellence in Global Education. Capt. Alon added that the college’s aim is to make it to the top 5 maritime colleges (from 9th place) in the said exams.
Furthermore, the administration is acquiring an approval from the Professional Regulatory Commission (PRC) for official licensed Deck and Engine simulator training. If approved, the school will be offering these trainings even to other Maritime schools. Ce-C also boasts its well-trained instructors and is planning to add more in preparation for the upcoming semester. “We are expecting a considerable increase in the maritime department’s population by the next academic year, hence, the need for more proficient instructors is being taken into consideration”, Capt. Alon remarked. Asked about his vision for Cristal e-College, he responded with a confident smile, “Probably by the next 3-5 years, Ce-C will already be able to acquire its own training vessel”—a vision not impossible to achieve for an institution with the passion for excellence.
