World Aquaculture Magazine - March 2021

48 MARCH 2021 • WORLD AQUACULTURE • WWW.WA S .ORG videos, interactive components and cooking competitions was appropriate (Fig. 4). However, some respondents indicated that more interactive components or delivering content over a few days rather than one long day would have been helpful. One respondent stated, “allow more time for interactive discussions … all day events are long and hard to sit through in a virtual setting, maybe attempting to split the content up over multiple days? I know that could be difficult as well . ” The response indicates attendees are still looking for informal interaction and networking opportunities regardless of in-person or virtual settings. Another interesting finding was that those who responded to the survey spent most of the day attending sessions. However, there was a slight decrease in participation as the event continued into the afternoon. This feedback suggests that future GLAC events should be divided over two to three shorter days rather than one, full-day event. Overall, the GLAD 2020 event was a success and, although it had to be virtual, we effectively integrated GLAC advisory group ideas into a format that was engaging for presenters and attendees. For example, one attendee commented, “Thanks so much for bringing this symposium to us, the industry needs more of these . ” We will use the recommendations from our survey and additional feedback from our GLAC advisory groups to guide our future efforts.
