REMOTE TRAINING AND ONLINE LEARNING FUNDING SUPPORT

A number of training programmes (delivered remotely) are supported by up to 50% funding support (provided by Skills Development Scotland) during the current Covid 19 situation.

The funding is limited and not all courses will go ahead if there are insufficient numbers, so please register your interest early.

Applications will be processed upon receipt and funding allocated appropriately.


Seafood Scotland is administering this programme of training is supported by Seafish and other Network partners.

The Scottish funding compliments Seafish's UK wide funding support and the two funds will be managed appropriately by Seafood Scotland and Seafish.

Applications for funding support should be sent to Seafish's Onshore Training Team using this registration form (Excel spreadsheet).

While seafood businesses outside of Scotland cannot apply for the "upskilling" funding, they can participate in the remote training courses on offer at full cost. Note: some of these programmes are funded by Seafish and businesses outside of Scotland are eligible to apply.
