Testimonial

"Having done some research on sustainable fishing methods, visiting the Opotiki Community Reef site was incredibly interesting. It is an excellent example of what can be done to ensure that fish populations thrive in the future."

Educational

We could tell you about Seabed Enhancement
but you'd probably forget
We could show you how to grow our fisheries
and you may remember some
But if we involve you in how to give back to the sea
then you would understand.

SeaBed Enhancement
Corporate Education

Seabed Enhancement, also known as man initiated reefs, embraces many elements including one of environmental education.

New in 2010. A MindMap of Seabed Enhancement, the theories behind it, video clips on the practicalities of how you can do it, and other connected resources is now available.

This outline of Seabed Enhancement has been produced with the support of Environment Bay of Plenty's Enhancement Funding.

The disc can be obtained by phoning or emailing REAF or contacting EBOP.

Many have contributed to the production of video clips and materials on the disc. We think the Seabed Enhancement story is organic and we welcome more contributions from you that might be suitable for the disc.

We would like the material to be as accessible as possible to as many as possible. The disc is available on donation 'koha'. As a guideline, $15 would cover the cost of materials involved and postage, and a $25 koha would help others less financial to access the material.

The Mind Mapping interactive media disc will be sent out to you on a dual layer DVD. It will play on most all computers. (8.5 GB of material).

Accessing the material requires you to install PersonalBrain software on your computer, which fortunately is a free download.

Learning from some else's experience is possible, but REAF deliberately plans an interactive program to get you involved in a hands on way. For many of us this is the best way of learning. Our tours and workshops should be considered suitable for secondary school groups studying in 'environment education' as much as for corporate education.

Wikipedia defines the difference between corporate education and training as "Corporate education, however adds another dimension and depth to training by involving learners as participants in generating new knowledge that assists organisations to develop and evolve, rather than maintain maintain the status quo.

Corporate education involves a facilitator rather than an instructor or trainer to engage participants and encourage them to think about the what, how and why of what they are doing and challenge their current paradigms.

Thanks Wikipedia, this really describes what we offer and do in our tours and workshops really well.
