Industry training is a great way to learn new skills while you are still working. You don’t incur any student debt and you can be formally recognised for the skills you may already have, and gain new ones that are relevant to your job.

Seafood ITO can show you how to get the right industry training for your staff – in the workplace or at a training establishment. We provide all the support you need to do this and provide training for your workplace trainers and assessors too.

Ensuring people in the seafood industry have access to and consistently receive high-quality training is our top priority. We work in partnership with training providers and assessors as well as employers and trainees to achieve this.

Seafood ITO is the Industry Training Organisation (ITO) for New Zealand’s seafood industry. We offer nationally recognised qualifications for thousands of people in our industry every year.

Most of this training takes place on the job as Seafood ITO trainees are usually employed within the industry and learn while they are earning wages or a salary.

As well as helping people develop their careers, industry training is all about meeting the skill needs of industry and assisting businesses and organisations in New Zealand’s seafood industry to be more productive.

We receive the bulk of our funding from the Tertiary Education Commission.
