| dc.description | The third International Training Course in Aquaculture, financed jointly by AGFUND and the Government of Hungary, was held from 16 May to 12 August 1988. Eighteen participants from fourteen countries in Asia, Africa and the Caribbean attended this course on Fish Foods and Feeding. The course was divided between two centres in Hungary, the first six weeks being spent at the Warm Water Fish Hatchery, Százhalombatta, and the final seven weeks at the Fish Culture Research Institute, Szárvás. Ins truction took the form of approximately 60% lectures and 40% practical classes. Most of the teachers were Hungarian experts, with the addition of international consultants recruited by FAO to cover specialist topics when necessary. Field study tours to visit commercial fish farms and feed mills were also arranged. The quality and success of the course was evaluated by the participants in confidential questionnaires. These revealed a good level of satisfaction with most aspects of the organizat ion and teaching, though some improvements to the design and extent of practical classes, allowing more personal student involvement in tasks, were considered desirable, An increase in the amount of practical material covered in lectures, and a decrease in use of interpreters, were also proposed for any future courses. From the results of an examination and informal assessment, all trainees were judged to have satisfactorily completed and understood the course. The completion of the Third Inte rnational Training Course in Aquaculture brings this series of three English-language courses to a successful conclusion. | |
