SUMMARY:Tide’s Out: Manager Leadership Summit /  Marea Baja: Cumbre de Liderazgo para Gerentes
DESCRIPTION:Update 3/3/26: We’ve re-opened registration until the end of the week (or until all spots are filled). Sign up if you are still hoping to get a spot!\nAdvance registration is strongly recommended. \nShellfish aquaculture is central to rural coastal communities\, but many companies have struggled in recent years to recruit and retain a steady workforce to sustain the industry. In response\, Washington Sea Grant created Tide’s Out\, a FREE two-part training program for the next generation of the aquaculture industry workforce. \nThe FREE 3-day Manager Leadership Summit in Ilwaco\, WA aims to equip employers with best practices and resources for employee retention\, safety and well-being. Participation is open to any current or aspiring owner\, manager or supervisor in the aquaculture or seafood industry. Resources are available to support English language learners.  \nPlease contact Nicole Naar\, Social Science and Education Specialist (nanaar@uw.edu or 530-760-8073) for more information. \n—————————- \nActualización 3/3/26: Hemos reabierto el plazo de inscripción hasta el final de la semana (o hasta que se llenen todas las plazas). ¡Inscríbete si aún tienes esperanzas de conseguir una plaza!”\nSe recomienda encarecidamente la inscripción anticipada. \nLa acuicultura es importante para la economía y la cultura en las comunidades costeras\, pero muchas empresas han tenido dificultades en los últimos años para reclutar y retener una fuerza laboral estable para sostener la industria. Por eso\, Washington Sea Grant hizo Marea Baja\, un programa de capacitación GRATUITO para la próxima generación de la fuerza laboral de la industria acuícola.  \nLa Cumbre de Liderazgo para Gerentes es GRATUITA y se llevará a cabo durante 3 días en Ilwaco\, WA. Tiene como objetivo equipar a los empleadores con las mejores prácticas y recursos para la retención\, la seguridad y el bienestar de los empleados. La participación está abierta a cualquier propietario\, gerente o supervisor actual o aspirante de la industria acuícola o de los productos del mar. Tenemos recursos para apoyar a los que hablan español u otros idiomas. \nFavor de comunicarse con Nicole Naar\, Especialista en Ciencias Sociales y Educación (nanaar@uw.edu o 530-760-8073) para obtener más información. \n
