From 2 to 3 July 2019, EMSA organised in Lisbon an Advanced Training on Port Facility Security.

The event was attended by twenty four officials assigned with port facility security tasks for monitoring the implementation of EU legislation.

The training had a practical approach with case studies on the requirements of port facility security issues in relation to the familiarisation and application of international and EU legislation. Through the course participants got a better understanding of the main role and responsibilities of the administrations with regard to port facility security and also had the opportunity to share their experience and discuss issues encountered during implementation.
