Result description
The SEAFOODTOMORROW e-learning module aids the professional development of those working or being trained to work in the seafood industry, especially managers. The tool is based on OpenTEA, an interactive web platform developed in BROWSE (GA 265307). Addressing identified gaps in the seafood sector, the e-learning tool will include modules addressed directly by SEAFOODTOMORROW, namely development of eco-innovative solutions for sustainable seafood production and processing; risk:benefit assessment of solutions; sustainability, authentication and traceability, labelling and certification, and communication to consumers. Course materials are presented as short video lectures with notes, links, reference materials, and case studies, applicable to the working environment, which can be downloaded. Assessment includes quizzes and feedback questionnaires, and users will receive a certificate on completion. The e-learning will be maintained as free-of-charge for up to three years after the project has ended (April 2021).
