Attend 2-3 week not-for-credit training workshops designed to deepen skills in a specialized marine science field. Training workshop topics vary from one summer to the next, and are led by active and passionate scientists in their respective fields. Participants end training workshops with newfound skills, reinforced by the experiential and hands-on nature of these programs. FHL’s training workshops are targeted primarily toward individuals in graduate school and beyond in their careers.
