Building international collaboration in Tasmania

13 November 2024

Seafood and Maritime Tasmania (SMT) recently hosted a delegation from the Korean Marine Meister High School.

The students visited the Huon Valley Trade Training Centre, Tassal, local oyster and abalone farms, gaining firsthand experience of the Tasmanian seafood industry.

As part of the program delegates meet with Seafood Industry Tasmania, Salmon Tasmania, and Oyster Tasmania to form MOU’s and strengthen local industry connections.

The aim of these visits is to help establish and grow links between the Korean school, their future graduates and the Tasmanian seafood industry. This initiative aims to foster international education and industry partnerships.

Looking ahead, SMT is excited to welcome the next group of international students in 2025.
