Marketing :
For Training Candidates:
Emc will advertize its program thru:
 Billboards
 Flyers
 Internet
 Posting information on School Bulletins( or Barangay Halls)
 Conducting special orientations on schools
EmC presumes that by this means of advertizing, training candidates will be coming not only from the Leyte area, but rather from Samar, Cebu, Bohol, and in the Mindanao areas, and even some in Luzon area, similar to the Maritime School in Palompon. Moreover, EmC is located along the highway in Caridad, which is a passing through for bus route going to Davao. And by putting billboard/streamer in Ormoc, rumors can reach Cebu about EmC Crew Training

Marketing:
For Trainees after Training:
EmC Crew Training and Consultancy is a Training Institution and not a Crewing/Manning Agency. We only give free consultancy and recommendation/referral to our trainees for their job hunting/employment after their training course with us.
EmC has a link with a crewing agency that hires personnel for Passenger/Luxury Vessels. The concept is, to let our trainees be given an interview and priority to be accommodated for employment. But we don’t guarantee that all our trainees will be hired by the Agency. It depends upon the Agency to choose their recruits (depending on the physical appearance, attitude, medical examination, etc. of the trainee).
For those trainees who were unfortunate to be hired by this Agency, EmC will still render them free consultation/referral to other manning companies, like the other Training Centers use to do.
Emc will not advertize its link with this crewing agency for the purpose of avoiding any criticism/grievances from those trainees who were unfortunate to be hired by this crewing agency.
