Student Success | EmployNZ

Pathway to Employment!

Success for us is when our students move on to work or higher level learning after they have graduated. Ella is a great example of this, after struggling with attendance at school, she joined our CareerFit NCEA L2 course learning about health, fitness, nutrition, team work and work skills. Ella has just completed the course and has now found an awesome job at a high profile Hotel in Tauranga. Well Done Ella!

Careers Unlimited visit the Tauranga City Art Gallery

This week our Careers Unlimited students went on a field trip to the Tauranga City Art Gallery to experience the immersive 'Terminus' V.R exhibit. There is some amazing art work there and it was very entertaining for the students (and Tutors!). EmployNZ students often do these types of activities in Tauranga, Rotorua or Whakatane as it is a really good way of breaking up a busy day in the classroom! These students are studying towards their NCEA level 1 and will earn the Certificate in Foundation Skills as well.

Term 3 Begins – Speed Dating Time

This week at EmployNZ we welcomed back our students in Tauranga, Rotorua and Whakatane for term 3. There were plenty of new students so what better way to get things going than speed dating. This is a really fun interactive exercise where the whole group gets a chance to talk to one another one on one. We had a quick session beforehand where we all answered a few questions to give each other some background which meant that we all had some topics of conversation and before long some really interesting and entertaining conversations begun. Such a great way to break the ice on the first day of term and get everyone involved!
