Recommendations

Based from the findings and conclusions, the researchers would like to recommend the

following:

1. Students. John B. Lacson Foundation Maritime University-Arevalo Senior high school

department should continue to inspire and spread the good insights of being a seafarer and to

encourage everyone to take Pre Baccalaureate Maritime Specialization provided by the

institution for the K-12 program as a preparatory for the BSMT Program.

2. Principal. The Senior high school maritime-related course present provided

instructors would remain competent and teach quality education for every student. And to the

future instructors that the institution would provide, may they would be the same as competent

as the previous and enhance their skills to meet the expectations of the aspiring seafarers and

be a role model.

3. Admin. The students give a very satisfactory rate about the environment, and

equipment hence, may the institution continue to provide and enhance the facilities and

equipment given to the Senior high school curriculum and future BSMT students. We praise the

efforts given by the administration and we hope that they may further strive to exceed every

student’s expectation.
