Seafood Science and Manufacturing Technology

This Gallery is dedicated to the seafood processing and manufacturing sector. A broad range of training programmes and materials are already available, with more being developed over the next few years.

Secondary Processing includes:

  • Seafood Smoking eLearning Programme
  • Freezing, defrosting and glazing
  • Coatings
  • Ready To Eat (RTE) Seafood Meals
  • Marinades
  • etc.

The development of new occupational standards in 2009/10 is driving the development of new training programmes in 2010/11, so watch this space.

Much of the work in developing new occupational standards, VQ Units and related training programmes and qualifications is led by Seafish's Seafood Training Expert Group. To find out more about this Group and how it's progressing with this work contact training@seafish.co.uk or look on the Seafish website.
