The Medalya ng Kasanayan was also awarded to Superintendents Jude Doble and Edilberto Lajom, Chief Inspector Ronald Yusi, Senior Police Officer 2 Miguel Acosta, and SPO1 Apolonio Salas.

Meanwhile, Superintendent Ricardo Hidalgo, Senior Inspector Ma. Elvira Bautista, Inspector Jebie Timario, and SPO1 Apolonio Sales were awarded the Medalya ng Papuri for the services they rendered in the seminar on crime prevention.
