Industry voice is key to determining the future of work-based learning. TEC is working alongside the new Industry Skills Boards (ISBs) and with the support of Work-Based Learning providers, in conversations with industry, to help shape the future of work-based learning.
As a first step, TEC are running a webinar to explain how the new system works overall and answer any questions that employers and industry groups may have.
The webinar will cover:
- the new VET system, the different roles of organisations in the system and where industry voice is needed to shape the future
- the transition of the work-based learning divisions that were previously within the New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology (formerly Te Pūkenga) – including their temporary transition into the new Industry Skills Boards, and the options now available for their learning and programmes to transition out to polytechnics, private training establishments (PTEs), or wānanga by 1 January 2028
- the critical role of industry in informing the future network of work-based learning provision. This means the different types of providers that different industries might require to best meet their work-based learning needs.
The webinar is scheduled for one hour at 11am on Tuesday 17 March. To attend, please register using the following link: VET System Webinar This webinar will be recorded and available to watch if you are unable to make it.
