Programs

2 programs

Mobile marine lab is a hands-on educational program that allows students to explore a working model of florida's watershed, the effects of pollution and beach erosion and how it relates to the marine-life chain. The interactive mobile lab promotes advocacy across all demographics, especially at our schools in palm beach and martin counties.

Charting a course in the marine industries provides advanced high school students with extensive vocational fishing education and post secondary preparation and support designed to prepare them for the workforce or college. These students learn how to mentor younger students, teach our program, and work with our community partners through our on-the-job component.
