University of Portsmouth forms educational partnership with Flying Fish

31 October 2008

Flying Fish UK and the University of Portsmouth have formed an educational partnership to deliver practical training to students of Water Sports Science in the University's Department of Sport and Exercise Science.

During the first year of this innovative degree course, one of the core study modules is Coaching Principles (Watersports). To achieve a full understanding of the subject, students are funded by the University to take part in a relevant practical course. Flying Fish provides skills training in yachting, dinghy sailing, windsurfing and diving, leading to professional performance and instructor certification. Portsmouth tutors have identified a list of recommended Flying Fish courses.

During the second year of the course the University pays for practical training and an operations-based study programme with Flying Fish in Greece. For more information on the University of Portsmouth programme in Greece go to Water Sports Science courses in Vassiliki >>

If the training results in a professional qualification, Portsmouth students benefit from the Flying Fish online recruitment service, to help them find work in the watersports industry during university holidays and after graduation.
