Celebrating Maritime Excellence: UC Honors UC-NSA Cadet Program and NMFPI's Anniversary

Couldn't make it to the University of Cebu-Lapu-Lapu and Mandaue's grand event on May 8, 2025? Fear not, matey! We've got the lowdown on this unmissable soiree.

This shindig was a double whammy – a celebration of the University's long-standing partnership with the Norwegian Shipowners' Association (NSA) and the trailblazing cadets of the UC-NSA Cadet Program. But wait, there's more! It also marked the 35th Anniversary of the Norwegian Maritime Foundation of the Philippines Inc. (NMFPI).

It was a who's who of maritime royalty, with attending titans like UC president Atty. Augusto W. Go, NTC chief executive officer Capt. Joe Tomren, NTC chief operating officer Capt. Knut Bentzrod, NTC Cadet manager Larry Gonzales, and UC-NSA Project director Dave B. Polistico. These heavy hitters came together to toast years of collaboration that brought global opportunities to Filipino cadets.

This wasn't just a stuffy corporate blowout – it was a heartfelt tribute to resilience, shared vision, and the continued pursuit of maritime excellence. If these walls could talk, they'd no doubt tell tales of camaraderie and triumph.

Hope you didn't miss out on this historic occasion, sailors! Keep your eyes peeled for more events like this in the future. Until then, fair winds and following seas!
