Intermediate Training is a shorter course
The purpose of the Intermediate Training course is to allow a shorter training timeframe without losing too much of the content that the Comprehensive course offers. It is still a highly intensive and intensive workshop that will give the maximum VALUE for the time on the course.
We will NOT be focussing on Aquaponics Business aspects nor on Bio-Pest and disease management as much in this course due to time constraints

Martin Fick –
“We moved from the Mother City to the small town of Prince Albert a few years ago, and opened a B&B called The Lemon Tree. Our dream was to start with sustainable food production for our own consumption and for our guests. But Aquaponics is so much more complex that it first seems. So we attended the 2-Day Intermediate Course run by Practical Aquaponics in Salem as a couple, and all we can say is, “WOW!” We cannot imagine starting Aquaponics any other way. There are too many pitfalls and so much misinformation on the Internet.
The course was extremely well run and once we had started our system, which is now running beautifully, we attended the Comprehensive Course also, which was fantastic.
We highly recommend Practical Aquaponics and especially Martin and his team who have been stupendous in the post training support.”
