SUMMARY:Alaska Seafood Processing Leadership Institute\, Fall 2024
DESCRIPTION:  \nDo you have an employee who\, with key training\, could help lead your business into the future? The Alaska Seafood Processing Leadership Institute (ASPLI) offers 80 hours of intensive professional development for employees recognized as having the potential to move up in your company. The institute is designed for mid-level managers in a seafood plant—production managers\, QC supervisors\, seafood engineers\, human resources\, and corporate or administrative personnel identified by their employer as having leadership potential. Others who might benefit include direct marketers\, small seafood processors or others closely involved in the seafood industry. ASPLI provides the technical training needed in the seafood industry to master leadership and management skills. \nSession 1 runs November 4–8 at the UAF Kodiak Seafood and Marine Science Center\, where participants will learn from seafood faculty and local experts. Topics include the science of seafood\, shelf life\, quality and safety of Alaska’s fishery products\, product development\, lean manufacturing\, new technologies\, and seafood marketing. Participants will get hands-on experience in the KSMSC pilot plant\, and local seafood plant managers will offer perspectives on the seafood industry and management. \nSee ASPLI sample agenda (PDF; from previous event\, subject to revision). \nAfter the Kodiak session\, ASPLI participants will return to their jobs and work with an in-house mentor to identify and complete a project that improves plant operations. \nThe final ASPLI session will convene in Anchorage\, March 3–7\, 2025\, focused on leadership training\, project management\, human resources\, regulatory environment\, and developing effective management styles. Experienced seafood leaders\, government regulators\, and management consultants will lead the classes. The goal of this session is to develop the confidence\, skills\, and big-picture understanding needed by tomorrow’s managers. \nThe fee for this program is $2\,200 per person. Employers will be responsible for airfare and lodging to and from the training sites. University of Alaska Fairbanks vocational training funds offset a portion of the cost of ASPLI. The full value of this training program is approximately $6\,000 per person. \nEmployees of companies that are members of the Alaska Research Consortium will receive a $400 discount towards their ASPLI registration.  \n\nApplication instructions\nIf you have an employee who would benefit from ASPLI and you wish to be a sponsor\, direct the prospective participant to fill out and submit an online application. \nTo qualify for this program\, the participant must be employed in Alaska (although the company they work for is not required to be based in Alaska) and be able to commit to the full ASPLI schedule: \n\nNovember 4-8\, 2024\, in Kodiak\nNovember 2024–March 2025 in-plant project with your mentor\nMarch 3–7\, 2025\, in Anchorage\n\nPlease answer all questions on the application. \nDeadline: Applications should be submitted by October 10\, 2024.
