The programme is a combination of a job in a seafood company, and an academic programme of 12 days spread over four modules in Bergen, Trondheim, Brussel/Paris and Tromsø. Seafood Trainee is a one-year programme. Throughout the trainee period the candidates are employed with one company. As a trainee they will be part of daily operations of this company and will gain knowledge about its total operations worldwide.
The program is a combination of a job in one of the companies participating in the program, an academic program of 12 days spread over four modules in Norway and a study trip abroad. The academic modules serve several purposes. The most important one is building relevant competence through lectures, group work and company presentations. In addition they serve as a meeting place for exchange of experience as well as a social arena for networking. Altogether this will give a broad overview of the various entities in the seafood industry.
