Our Training Courses
Your career journey starts with the first step…
…and our courses get you on your path. They’re designed to help kick-start your career while you’re still at school, and all can lead to apprenticeships, entry-level jobs or tertiary training, straight from school.
All our courses offer a range of unit standards and credits which can count towards NCEA levels 1, 2 or 3.

Some courses are available in Nelson and some in Marlborough. Students may choose to travel Nelson or Marlborough to attend their programme of choice (all transport is free).
