The Fisheries Training Programme offers financial and technical support to develop and deliver short courses and workshops in its partner countries.
The objective is to strengthen the capacity of partner countries in the delivery of fisheries education at the local level.
FTP provides support for short courses in collaboration with institutions in partner countries and international organisations.
A typical course is designed and run in a cooperative effort between specialists from Iceland and the target country or region, often engaging the expertise of former fellows.
The resulting customised course materials are used in further educational and training endeavours in-country.
