WHAT IS IT?
Our Business of Fishing programme lifts the lid on fisheries science and management and gives all fishermen and other professionals involved in quota-based fisheries the language, tools, insights and relationships they need to navigate modern fisheries.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
We bring fishermen, scientists, managers and supply chain professionals together for 2-3 days in a neutral setting, where they work with the complexities of fisheries science and management away from the pressures of fishing.
Fishermen leave motivated to collaborate further, using what they know to shape the future of their industry and improve their prospects; scientists and managers gain a deeper insight into the inner workings and concerns of the quota-based fishing community.
WHO IS IT FOR?
This programme is aimed at quota-based fisheries in the UK. It caters for all levels and abilities, building on your current level of knowledge: no prior learning is required. The programme is open to all active fishermen, but professionals from other sectors such as processing, supply and fleet management are welcome.
