As an archipelagic nation made up of 7,100 islands, maritime industries such as fishing, sea
transport, and marine tourism play a significant role in the lives of many Filipinos. Thus, it
makes sense that a large number of Filipinos enroll in maritime education and training (MET)
programs in order to seek a career in the marine industry [1]. Formerly, the Philippines was the
world's top supplier of seafarers, but in recent years, China, Russia, and other nations that supply
seafarers have risen to the top. Global demand for sailors is projected to increase from 92,000 in
2020 to 147,500 in 2025 [2]. However, in order to maximize the potential of Filipino seafarers,
inclusive MET must be provided, and disparities in economic and geographic status among the
various areas. This study analyzes the number of MET institutions that are accessible in various
administrative regions and provides a first examination of the impact of governance on MET
accessibility.

Ship to Academe, Seafaring to Teaching: Seafarer Teachers in Maritime Higher Education Institutions
in the Philippines Estimo, Emeliza Torrento. “Ship to Academe, Seafaring to Teaching: Seafarer
Teachers in Maritime Higher Education Institutions in the Philippines.” Herpetologica 5 (2020): 44.

The shift from years of serving as marine officers on board ships to full-time teaching positions
in maritime colleges represents a significant and abrupt change in the function and way of life of
seafarers. It is a very different thing entirely to supervise and educate a team of ship's crew in an
organized, hierarchical setting onboard from translating subject-matter expertise into a flexible
classroom discourse using proper pedagogical methods to ensure efficient and successful
delivery of instruction. This descriptive study attempts to ascertain the degree of competence
based on the self-assessment of seafarers who have transitioned to become maritime instructors
in relation to Lloyd's list of essential qualities for maritime educators, which includes subject
knowledge and technical skills, communication pedagogy, soft skills, and abilities. Data from a
study of fifty-eight deck and engine instructors showed that these former seafarers with
transformed careers have a bright future ahead of them as mentors shaping the next generation of
seafarers. Both the dedication to instructing and the ability to convey information and abilities
are present. Nonetheless, in order to make the most of their teaching abilities, they must stay up
to speed on the ongoing advancements in the maritime sector. This will allow them to offer
students with current information and enhance the realism and relevance of the teaching and
learning process. As maritime educators, they ought to be driven to carry out their varied
responsibilities with enthusiasm, not only to deliver the goods but to do it in a way that inspires
and creates a cheerful disposition among their pupils. The difficulties faced by seafarer teachers
as they change from being marine officers to maritime educators were also identified by this
study. As a result of this investigation, a specialized set of training programs for experienced
deck and engine instructors was suggested in order to fill the gaps that were found.
