New ÐÓ°Épro commercial fishermen will get a chance to meet and learn with their peers
in January at the sixth ÐÓ°Épro Young Fishermen’s Summit.
The summit, developed by the ÐÓ°Épro Sea Grant Marine Advisory Program, is a three-day
event that focuses on training, networking and skill building to manage modern commercial
fishing businesses.
The 2016 summit will be held Jan. 27-29 in Juneau. It is geared toward commercial
fishermen earlier in their careers.
ÐÓ°Épro fishing industry leaders volunteer their time and expertise to mentor the young
fishermen, and to teach on a range of topics that include business management, seafood
markets, the fisheries regulatory process and fisheries science.
