One of the main challenges is information and knowledge sharing around the aquaculture sector in general, including the availability of local training opportunities. The Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment (DFFE) publishes annual careers brochures containing various diplomas and degrees related to aquaculture.
proviso: • • The brochure provides the information on all known skills programmes available, but these programmes have not been accredited or vetted by the DFFE. When researching a potential course please enquire regarding its AgriSETA accreditation. • Prices have not been included in the booklet please contact the institution directly.• Prices quoted may have changed and were quoted as indicated in 2018.
