Our Partners

Partnerships in education

We’re at their service,

and we couldn’t exist without them

Our partners are the heart of why we created the academy. They include local secondary schools (both teachers and students), trainers and industry – like local businesses and employers.

A big "thank you"

So, a big thank you to all our industry and training partners for supporting our local young people
– together we’re doing the exciting work of providing New Zealand with a skilled and enthusiastic workforce.

We couldn’t do it without you!

How we work with our partners

Our role is ‘match-making’ our partners with each other so that:

  • students get the skills they want and need to prepare for life-after-school
  • employers get talented, skilled, work-ready employees
  • tertiary educators gain keen new students, ready for advanced learning.
