Need

The Seafood CRC is aiming to address capability building and other relevant issues through its E&T TBP 'A, B, Sea' with Emily Downes as the Program Manager. The TBP has 2 important outcomes which are paramount on this project being successful, namely:

• CRC industry participants have the necessary skills to implement and maximise the results from CRC R&D for use in their businesses, and
• Seafood CRC participants have an improved ability to attract, train and retain staff.

Through the TNA process, CRC participants need to be provided with assistance in identifying strategic WPT, particularly those which set within the CRC WPT priorities.
