Friendly Aquaponic Personal Intensive Training From Our Affiliates At Their Farms!
We used to give Personal Intensives at our farm in Hawaii, but in 2014 we handed them ALL off to our affiliates. This was our intention since we began Friendly Aquaponics in 2007. Our goal has always been to empower our students to teach the aquaponics technology we developed, and to encourage them to outdo their teachers. Well, it worked! Now we can comfortably recommend a Personal Intensive from any one of them.
There is ONLY one location for your Personal Intensive: Hawaii.
We only have one affiliate currently who is capable of offering our certified Personal Intensive Aquaponics Training. Contact him directly using the contact information on this page, and please note: we do not book Personal Intensive trainings for our affiliate through this site, you do it directly with him!

Start with the two-day Aquaponics-Only Personal Intensive, and then add the optional third Solar Greenhouse day; in Hawaii from Zac Hosler.
Dates and Times: At your convenience. Look at your calendar, then pick dates that work for you, and call or email the affiliate you select to make sure those dates are available. Cost: $2,500 for the 2-day Complete Aquaponic Intensive training for up to two persons, $3,500 for the 3-day that includes the Greenhouse Training for up to two persons, and $900 per each additional participant in the same project attending these trainings. This fee includes the same $2,288 worth of our DIY course materials we use in our group trainings.
For comparison, our group trainings at Affiliate locations on the mainland, which are five days in length, include the same materials but take place with 30 to 50 other participants and cost $1,995. Many hours in these 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.
