The Kiribati Seafood Verification Division (KSVD) in collaboration with the Seafood Toxicology Laboratory Division team hosted a 3-day induction training at the CPPL boardroom from 8/04/2025 to 10/04/2025. The team delivered basic theoretical topics to CPPL staff on different aspects relative to quality control, microbiology and chemical testing in seafood and water testing, seafood safety and quality training on ciguatera, sensory evaluation, cold supply chain, market access requirements, aseptic technique, good hygiene practice and HACCP followed by practical and group session activities. The training provides relevant topics to enhance their capacity building, adds beneficial impacts to their daily work activity and provides an opportunity to earmark for fish export in the future. The team expressed sincere gratitude to the government of New Zealand through Tobwaan Waara Program (TWP) for its generous funding support to this valuable training.
