Aquaponics Personal Intensive Training
Personal Aquaponics Intensives include two full days of hands-on instruction at our farm by Susanne and Tim, where you will learn everything you need to know to build and operate aquaponics systems of any size. The Personal Intensive uses the same course materials as the group Commercial Trainings, but has a completely different format (please view the “Group Trainings” page for the details of the course materials and the complete course outline).
This training is tailored for you and your particular situation and goals in aquaponics. We discuss and offer solutions and approaches for your climate, your site, your market, and your level of business experience. You will have all your questions answered, and we make sure you understand every detail completely. Although there is no contractual support included with the Intensives, we tend to support our Intensive clients (via phone calls and email answers to questions) through construction and into operation at no charge because we are committed to their success. This training will occur at your own pace and at your own level of technical understanding. To help facilitate your getting the most out of this training, we email you the Micro System manual and plans as soon as you’ve registered for the course so you can begin your study in aquaponics. If you put some time in on this manual first, you will start the Personal Intensive at a much more advanced level of understanding and get a LOT more out of it.
“The Friendly Aquaponics’ Personal Intensive training was worth every dollar and then some. The personalized course gave me the opportunity for even the smallest of my questions to get answered. I would highly recommend this course to everyone who wants extremely effective training in aquaponics technology.”
-Keith Blake, Rainy Day Farms LLC, Kauai

Location: The Complete Aquaponics Intensive takes place on our farm in Honoka’a, with hours of hands-on learning. (If you are coming from off-island, we may be able to pick you up at the airport, and take you back, depending on the farm schedule).
Cost: $2,500 for the Complete Aquaponics Intensive training, $900 per additional participant in the same project. This includes the same course materials we use in our group trainings. For comparison, our group trainings in Hawaii, which are four days in length, include the same material but take place with 40-80 other participants, and cost $1,500. Many hours in the group trainings are spent answering the questions of other participants, which may or may not apply to you, your project, and your level of understanding.
