Why Apprenticeships?

  1. Earn as you learn!
    You have a full time job and study part time. You donʼt need to worry about writing long complicated essays anymore … and you donʼt need to rely on Dad for cash!

  2. No student loan!
    The beauty of an apprenticeship is that they pay you to get your qualification! The average student loan of a University Graduate is around $18,726 (NZ Union of Students’ Association). Who wants to worry about that kind of debt? With an apprenticeship, you donʼt need to!

  3. Real world career skills!
    You can apply your trade qualification almost anywhere in New Zealand and the world! What a fantastic way to begin your Overseas Experience!

  4. Tradespeople are in demand!
    Engineering is the hub of the world. There will always be work and jobs available! Register your interest on our website now!
