ORIENTATION DAY FOR STUDENTS OF MAPEX INSTITUTE

By Sharon AGAVI
THE MAPEX Training Institute, Port Moresby Campus, yesterday hosted an orientation program for the second batch of students enrolled in Plant Operator and Business Courses.
The gathering aimed to introduce the students to their courses, trade programs, plant schedules, and the overall school environment.
MAPEX CEO Mr. Marcus Palam-Kara, when addressing the students, emphasized on the institute’s recognition by the Department of Higher Education, Research, Science, and Technology last year, which now qualifies MAPEX to participate in the governmentโs scholarship program.
Mr. Palam-Kara also encouraged students to take advantage of this opportunity by applying for government assistance through the Higher Education Loan Program (HELP).
Meanwhile, the first batch of Plant Operator and Driving students celebrated a mini graduation on Friday, June 27, 2025, at the Hideaway Hotel in Port Moresby.
