Port Harcourt is the capital and the largest city in Rivers State, Nigeria. It is the fifth most populous city in Nigeria, and it lies along the Bonny River which is located at Niger Delta. It is also known for its pidgin pronunciation (po-ta-kot, pi-ta-kwa). Port Harcourt Is also referred to as the garden city of Nigeria because of its richness in greenery, a fascinating place to visit and tour its environs.
In 1912, the colonial administration of Nigeria created the Port Harcourt seaport to export coal from the collieries of Enugu, located 243 kilometers north of Port Harcourt, and linked by a railway called the Eastern Line. Port Harcourt's economy turned to petroleum when the first shipment of Nigerian crude oil was exported through the city in 1958. With the building of the first refinery in Nigeria in Port Harcourt in 1965, it became the chief oil refining city in Nigeria and a major industrial center, hosting many multinational firms as well as other industrial concerns.
As oil exploration and refining activity grew, so also did the need to develop technical and managerial competencies to service the fledging industry. While some employees travelled oversees for training, others received their training locally. Training firms in Port Harcourt (PH) and other part of Nigeria provide a wide range of short management and professional training courses, in-plant training, and training seminars to bridge the knowledge gap. The training offered include Oil and Gas, Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) and ICT. Soft skill training courses, management consultancy and project management programmes are also offered to meet the need of not only the oil and gas industry but to also develop the civil service and support industries.
The training seminars, training courses, conferences and workshops listed here, billed to take place in Port Harcourt, are from carefully selected management training firms/providers and consultants in Port Harcourt and around the world.
