The Naval Reserve Command (NRC), also known as NAVRESCOM or RESCOM, (Filipino: Pangasiwaan ng Panlaang Kawal ng Hukbong Pandagat) is one of the Philippine Navy's Major Support Commands created for the sole purpose of reserve force management, procurement, and organization.

Training is one of the primary tasks that is handled by NAVRESCOM. One of its primary training unit is the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps (NROTC) for tertiary level students, the Basic Citizen's Military Course (BCMC) for civilians who didn't take the NROTC in their tertiary studies, and the Military Orientation Course (MOC) for private or public organizations of utility service providers who signified and volunteered to be part of the Philippine Navy Affiliated Reserve Units (PNARU).

The Naval Reserve Command also through its ROTC Program prepare future officers in the navy serving in the reserve force. Under the Naval Officer Qualification Course (NOQC), college graduates are trained to take roles as officers in Philippine Navy and the Philippine Marine Corps.
