Fishing Industry Leadership Training is now available to all within the seafood industry.

It is essential for fishers to be able to engage with Fisheries Agencies to better contribute towards fisheries management decision making. This is why it is critical for our Industry to have the tools it needs to better participate and engage in the management of our fisheries.

• Effective communication
• Meeting processes
