Need

The FRDC's 'People Development Program 2008-2013' has identified the need to "build workforce capacity".

TSIC's People Development Working Group identified the need to:
- foster stronger relationships between education-training sector and local seafood industry
- generate positive exposure of seafood industry career pathways
- increase uptake of industry jobs by young entrants

At the State level there is specific need to:
Support the sustainability of the Tasmanian Program by formally evaluating its outcomes and documenting corporate knowledge gained.

At the national level the FRDC's People Development Program has identified the need to:
"Support development and promotion of career information for seafood industries".
This project will address this need by developing resources which will enable the successful Working on Water Program Model to be piloted in other States.

Objectives

1. Evaluate the processes, knowledge and outcomes of the Tasmanian 'Working on Water: from Aquaculture to Zoology' Careers Promotion Program and determine the benefits to the seafood industry
2. Pending the identification of substantial benefits arising from the Tasmanian 'Working on Water: from Aquaculture to Zoology' Program, develop a model and resources to support a Working on Water Careers Promotion Program to be piloted in States and regions outside Tasmania
