HCP at GenSan and Davao for Skills Sharing Seminars!

May-02-2017

Last April 28-29, Hartmann Crew Philippines visited Davao and General Santos City where they held livelihood seminars on Meat and Fish Processing as well as Soap Making. It was open to all HCP Crew and their families.

Both seminars were held in partnership with Golden Treasure Skills and Development Program and the Maritime Multi-Purpose Cooperative. HCP also thanks Davao Merchant Marine Academy (DMMA) and Mindanao Polytechnic College (MPC) for graciously hosting the events at their campuses.

Davao: Meat and Fish Processing Seminar

Held at the DMMA, participants had a one-day learning session on how to make the traditional Ham, Tocino, Embutido, Kikiam, Hamburger, Bacon, Beef Tapa, Fish Ball, and Spanish Style Sardines.

Participants received actual hands-on experience in working with the ingredients. They were also able to taste their meat and fish preparations.

The resource speaker and trainer was Mrs. Ida Jain Alcid, who hails from Davao. After retiring from teaching, she focused on sharing her skills in partnership with Golden Treasure for almost 15 years now.

Meanwhile in GenSan, a “Soapskwela,” was held at the MPC. Participants were taught how to make different kinds of soap and science behind it.

A good number of crowd came at Mindanao Polytechnic College to learn making soaps

Attendees had the chance to create their own liquid dish washing soap, liquid hand soap, liquid all-purpose soap, bar detergent soap, powder soap, glycerin herbal (transparent bath soap) soap, liquid bleach, fabric softener, car soap, and liquid detergent soap—which they also took home after the seminar.

As a bonus, they were also given tips on marketing these products should they want to upgrade their learning into a business. The speaker for the day was Ms. Emily Diaz, an entrepreneur and skills trainer who has been around the country sharing her knowledge and expertise.

Present also at the event was Vice President of Hartmann Crew Philippines, Ma. Nenelita N. Gomez.

“Itong binibigay namin sa inyo, it’s really up to you kung papaano n’yo gagamitin ito or how you will make gold out of this. Whether gagawin n’yong negosyo or para ma-cut ang cost n’yo sa mga araw-araw na ginagamit sa bahay, it’s all up to you. I hope you learned a lot and we hope to continue giving more learning sessions para mapalawak din natin ang inyong sources of income at hindi lang natin asahan ang ating mga seafarers.”
