SUMMARY:FMSEA/FWC Aquatic Species Collection Workshop for teachers
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual event for teachers held over Zoom\n\nSponsored by the Florida Marine Science Educators Association and the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission \nFMSEA and The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission have developed and implemented an aquatic species collection workshop for educators. Upon successful completion of the workshop\, educators receive a 3-year collection certificate from the Florida FWCC. Virtual and in-person workshops held throughout the year at various locations. \nThe workshop is a professional development opportunity available to certified Florida teachers and/or eligible employees of educational centers (see below). \nFor specific questions about a particular workshop\, contact the facilitator listed in the appointment.\nFor general questions about ASCW\, contact: collections @ fmsea.org \nEffective December 1\, 2019\, all collection workshops will be $36.00. This fee includes training\, a collection certificate\, a complimentary membership to FMSEA\, and digital access to workshop materials and resources. The fee may be paid using the online registration link included in the calendar event. Those needing to pay via purchase order must contact Collections beforehand for approval and share a copy of the PO as proof of pending payment. For those needing FMSEA vendor information\, contact your facilitator. \n \nBackground\nBeginning in 1996\, FMSEA and The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (formerly DEP) began a partnership to develop and implement an aquatic species collection workshop for educators. The first workshop and facilitator training session was conducted at the April 1997 FMSEA conference. \nThe workshop is available to: \n\nAn instructor employed by\, or under sponsorship of\, an elementary or secondary school.\nAn instructor employed by\, or under sponsorship of\, another educational institution or organization with courses of biological or aquatic studies.\nAn individual who teaches in a home education program maintained in accordance with Section 1002.41\, F.S.\nA representative of a home education program association.\n\nFMSEA Certification requires successful completion of the training workshop. The primary workshop objective is to promote best practices in the collection and maintenance of aquatic organisms for educational activities. A curriculum has been established to achieve the primary workshop objective and includes but is not limited to: \n\nRationale for collecting aquatic organisms.\nAlternatives to the collection of live aquatic organisms.\nCollection methods.\nMinimization of environmental impacts.\nMinimization of aquatic organism mortality.\nRegulatory concerns. Appropriate gear deployment and use.\nEstablishment of collecting teams.\nCollection and documentation of field data.\n\nThe certificate does not supersede any state or federal regulations\, but it does allow the collection of specified numbers of certain species for educational purposes\, some undersized\, and to use certain types of collecting gear that would not be allowed under recreational fishing guidelines. \nUpon successful completion of the training workshop\, a participant receives a certification that is authorized by both FMSEA and Commission representatives. The certification: \n\nAuthorizes the harvest of certain fresh and saltwater organisms and specifies bag and possession limits.\nAuthorizes the use of specific scientific\, educational\, and recreational harvesting gears.\nSpecifies the fresh and saltwater areas in which harvest of aquatic organisms is allowed.\nProvides an exemption from local laws when harvesting in a designated saltwater area.\nCertificates are usually mailed out within 90 days. This certificate is valid for 3 years. Renewal workshops are available. Workshops are given annually at the FMSEA and FAST State conferences and throughout the year regionally.\n\nGeneral ​Conditions ​and ​Restrictions\n68B-8.003 ​General ​Conditions ​and ​Restrictions ​(1) ​(a) ​ ​A ​SAL ​or ​FMSEA ​Certification ​will ​not ​be ​issued ​to ​a ​person ​and ​no ​person ​may ​conduct ​activities ​under ​a ​SAL ​if\, ​during ​the ​36-month ​period ​prior ​to ​the ​application ​or ​activity\, ​that ​person ​has ​been ​charged ​with ​a ​violation ​of ​a ​rule ​in ​Titles ​68A ​through ​E\, ​F.A.C.; ​Chapter ​370 ​or ​372\, ​F.S.; ​or ​50 ​CFR ​Parts ​622\, ​635\, ​640\, ​648\, ​654\, ​660\, ​or ​679 ​unless ​that ​person ​has ​received ​a ​final ​disposition ​of ​acquittal ​or ​dismissal ​of ​such ​charged ​violation. \nASC Workshop Links \n\nflrules.org: Rule: 68B-8.008\, Florida Marine Science Educators Association Certification\nFWC Special Activity Licenses (SAL)
