Fish and Shellfish Occupational Standards

Like many companies, you may be suffering skill gaps or find that even qualified recruits lack the up-to-date knowledge you need.
This is your invitation to be part of the solution.

We are currently reviewing National Occupational Standards for Fish and Shellfish Processing, Fishmongering, Fish Frying and other occupations within the onshore fish and shellfish industry in the UK. The Standards aim to set out industry agreed benchmarks for expected job performance and support a number of key roles in the industry, detailing the specific knowledge and skills necessary to do the job well.

They are the bedrock of qualification design and training and learning content for these roles - including Apprenticeships - and we now welcome input from industry businesses like yours to make sure they fully reflect your needs.
