The SSPWA are currently seeking expressions of interest from industry for three two/three-day pilot workshops that the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development have formulated to help industry members navigate changing business scenarios. The workshops have been specifically formulated for the seafood industry, and so have similarities to programs that have been offered to farmers for some time now. Participation in the initial pilot workshop will only be available for a maximum of 12 businesses.
The three Workshops are:
1. Financial Management;
2. Sales and Marketing for the Fishing Industry; and
3. Intro to Strategic Planning.
Of the three workshops, only the two most demanded workshops will be selected to proceed. The approximate dates are the 10th and 11th of May in Albany, however this may change as things progress.
Funding for these programs derives from Muresk, and the only cost attributed to industry is to attend and accommodate themselves.
If you wish to participate in the Workshops, please email admin@sspwa.org.au to register your interest today.
