Objective
The objective of this pilot project is to design and develop a set of continuing training materials in the field of aquaculture. Beneficiaries of the project will be students in initial vocational training, workers wanting to retrain to work in the aquaculture sector and fishing sector workers looking to up-grade their skills in this growing industry.
The training materials developed will cover all aspects of aquaculture, including marine biology, geography, ecology, technical skills, management skills and the legislative framework. The final product will comprise a training methodology and manual, hypertext and a software programme for simulating management situations in aquaculture farms. The materials will be produced in English and Italian.
Once the materials have been evaluated and corrected, they will be presented at a dissemination meeting with the partners in Pescara, Italy. The partners will organise dissemination activities in their own countries. The training will also be available on the internet.
Impact
The project will contribute to the development of recognised training and qualifications in a sector where there is considerable potential for employment creation.
