Management course set for gas station owners
MANDATED by the Downstream Oil Industry Deregulation Act of 1998, the Department of Energy is tasked to promote retail competition through the establishment of Gasoline Station Training and Loan Funds in order to provide credit assistance to the new industry players in the petroleum retail.
As a result, with more players competing in the gasoline station business, better services, improved product quality and fair prices are expected.
The energy department, through its Oil Industry Management Bureau, would be conducting a series of management and skills training courses to investors who wish to avail of the Gasoline Station Lending and Financial Assistance Program.
This program is designed to provide credit assistance to new industry participants.
Those who would like to avail of the program must first undergo and successfully complete a series of management and skills training in the retailing of petroleum products for the establishment, operation, improvement, management and maintenance of the gasoline stations.
One of these courses is a skills and management course for gas station operators, which would be held on March 22 to 24 at the Grand Men Seng Hotel with a seminar fee of P4,500.
