Registration is now open for the 2025 Introductory Fisheries Science for Stakeholders (IFISSH) course offered through Rutgers Cooperative Extension.
This course is open to everyone who is interested in New Jersey's marine fisheries. The course's objective is to educate stakeholders of New Jersey's commercial and recreational fisheries so that they will better understand and make progress on issues impacting these industries, including the science, management, and responsible stewardship of fishery resources.
Ten classes will meet via Zoom webinar on Tuesday evenings (6:30 - 9:00 PM) from February 4 through April 8. Each class will include a mixture of presentations with Q&A and open discussion. Please see the attached flyer for additional details including a list of topics and confirmed speakers.
