Te Pukenga planning visits

Te Pūkenga is planning to conduct a series of face-to-face updates in June. Also known as the New Zealand Insitute of Skills and Technology, Te Pūkenga is a public network of regionally accessible vocational education which brings together the 16 Institutes of Technology and Polytechnics (ITPs).

The upcoming visits will provide an opportunity for Te Pūkenga to connect directly with the network and community and hear feedback on our collective progress to reform New Zealand’s vocational education system.

Executive Leadership Team members will be part of these discussions, which will be focused on providing an update on the development of the operating model alongside progress with other transformation programmes and Te Pūkenga activity.

The visits will begin on Thursday, 10 June with most regions visited over the following three weeks. Each hui will include a main session (approx. 2.5 hours long) and will include opportunities for attendees to provide feedback and ask questions. All sessions will be open to anyone who would like to attend.

In some locations there will be specific updates and sessions on areas such as Academic Regulations and a direct update for local employers; further details on this will be provided soon.

Two online sessions and a recording from an early session will be made available on the Te Pūkenga website for those who can’t attend the in-person visits.
