MAINE IS UNIQUELY POSITIONED FOR AQUACULTURE GROWTH, BUT A WORKFORCE SHORTAGE COULD STUNT THE INDUSTRY'S POTENTIAL TO INCREASE PRODUCTION AND JOBS. OUR SOLUTION IS TO ESTABLISH A COMPREHENSIVE MAINE AQUACULTURE WORKFORCE TRAINING SYSTEM TO MEET THE CURRENT AND FUTURE LABOR NEEDS OF MAINE'S RAPIDLY GROWING AND EVOLVING AQUACULTURE INDUSTRY THAT FOLLOWS THE FORWARD-THINKING MAINE AQUACULTURE WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY AND IS UNDERPINNED BY INDUSTRY-DEVELOPED OCCUPATIONAL STANDARDS.SPECIFICALLY, WE WILL:DEVELOP AND PILOT A MAINE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AQUACULTURE (ME DOL) AQUACULTURE APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM WHERE PARTICIPANTS WILL GAIN VALUABLE EXPERIENCE, RECEIVE MENTORING, GET TRAINED AND TESTED ON DEFINED OCCUPATIONAL COMPETENCIES, AND LEARN TO USE CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY AT MAINE'S MOST SOPHISTICATED COMMERCIAL SHELLFISH AND SEA VEGETABLE FARMS.DEVELOP AND ADMINISTER A SERIES OF STACKABLE, CREDENTIALED, AQUACULTURE SHORT COURSES AT SOUTHERN MAINE COMMUNITY COLLEGE (SMCC) THAT FORM THE BASIS OF AN AQUACULTURE CERTIFICATE.UPDATE THE MAINE AQUACULTURE OCCUPATIONAL STANDARDS FOR SHELLFISH AND SEA VEGETABLES, RECIRCULATING AQUACULTURE SYSTEMS, AND MARINE FINFISH TO ENSURE THAT AQUACULTURE WORKFORCE TRAINING REMAINS RELEVANT TO MAINE'S RAPIDLY EVOLVING AND GROWING INDUSTRY.COORDINATE PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT AND DELIVERY BETWEEN SMCC, WASHINGTON COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE, THE MID-COAST SCHOOL OF TECHNOLOGY (K-9 CAREER TECHNICAL EDUCATION HIGH SCHOOL), AND ME DOL APPRENTICESHIP TO ESTABLISH MATRICULATION PATHWAYS AND DUAL-CREDIT PROGRAMS THAT ENABLE FAST-TRACKED DEGREE COMPLETION.OUR CONSORTIUM OF GMRI, SMCC, MAA, EDUCATE MAINE, AND ME DOL IS UNIQUELY QUALIFIED TO DEVELOP AND SUSTAIN THE BROAD ARRAY OF INTERCONNECTED INDUSTRY-RELEVANT PROGRAMS TO HELP MAINE ACHIEVE ITS AQUACULTURE POTENTIAL.$500,000

THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO CREATE MEANINGFUL ENGAGEMENT THAT WILL LEAD TO AN EQUITABLE AND EFFECTIVE OFFSHORE WIND (OSW) DEVELOPMENT PROCESS IN THE GULF OF MAINE. THIS PROJECT WILL SUPPORT CAPACITY BUILDING FOR GULF OF MAINE FISHING COMMUNITIES AT THE EARLY STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT, IDENTIFY OPPORTUNITIES FOR COLLABORATIVE PROBLEM-SOLVING, AND FOSTER HONEST DIALOGUE TO CO-CREATE SOLUTIONS. IN THIS PROJECT, THE TERM “FISHING COMMUNITIES” REPRESENTS COMMUNITIES OF PEOPLE WHOSE LIVELIHOOD IS DEPENDENT ON HARVESTING MARINE RESOURCES AND INCLUDE ALL GEAR TYPES (E.G. MOBILE-GEAR AND FIXED-BOTTOM). GULF OF MAINE RESEARCH INSTITUTE (GMRI) WILL BUILD AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE INFORMATIONAL, EDUCATIONAL, CULTURAL, AND ENGAGEMENT NEEDS OF FISHING COMMUNITIES REGARDING OSW DEVELOPMENT. GMRI WILL THEN DEVELOP RESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITIES THAT ALIGN WITH COMMUNITY NEEDS THAT INFORM AND PREPARE FISHING COMMUNITIES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OSW PROCESS. THIS WORK WILL PROVIDE FISHING COMMUNITIES WITH THE BEST AVAILABLE INFORMATION TO SUPPORT THEIR ENGAGEMENT IN ALL PHASES OF OSW DEVELOPMENT. GMRI HOPES TO ENHANCE STAKEHOLDERS’ CAPACITY TO ENGAGE IN CONVERSATIONS AROUND COMMUNITY BENEFIT AGREEMENTS (CBA) AND POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENTS (PPA) THROUGH A FACILITATED WORKSHOP TO CO-DESIGN FUTURE SCENARIOS TO MITIGATE OR MINIMIZE ADVERSE IMPACTS OF OSW DEVELOPMENT. GMRI’S APPROACH WILL EMPHASIZE THE SUSTAINABLE USE OF MARINE RESOURCES AND PROMOTE SHARED SUCCESS FOR FISHING COMMUNITIES’ LONG-TERM RESILIENCE THROUGH CO-CREATING SOLUTIONS THAT BOLSTER SUSTAINABLE SEAFOOD HARVESTING AND CLIMATE RESILIENCE.$500,000
