  • ‘Unlock Your Future with New Zealand PTEs’ webinar series for the Indian market

    According to 2023 enrolment data, India is the largest source of students for New Zealand’s Private Training Establishments (PTEs). To ensure agents in India are receiving the most up-to-date and relevant information on the quality and range of courses at New Zealand PTEs, ENZ has launched its ‘Unlock your Future with New Zealand PTEs’ series.  

    The series is designed to cover different programme areas offered by our PTEs. The first session, held in October, focused on Engineering, Technology, and IT programmes and proved popular with 62 education agents participating. Attending the session from the PTEs, were representatives from academyEX, Auckland Institute of Studies, Aspire2, International College of Auckland, Media Design School, New Zealand Skills and Education Group, Whitecliffe College, and Yoobee College. During the webinar, these representatives introduced their programmes, discussed pathway opportunities, job prospects after graduation, and shared alumni stories.  

    Ruth Cooper, Co-chair of Quality Tertiary Institutions and Country Director of Media Design School said that this series aims to give education agents a clear understanding of New Zealand PTEs. 

    “Indian students make up the largest group of international students at our PTEs and education agents play a crucial role in facilitating this.  

    “We want Indian education agents to have a clear understanding that New Zealand PTEs provide high-quality, government-recognised, and student-centred education. They are well-connected to industry and offer a wide array of courses and programs at various levels,” said Ruth. 

    “These webinars help providers establish and strengthen relationships with Indian education agents and equip them with valuable information to share with prospective students,” she added.

The 19 November session will explore education options in food, hospitality, personal services, health, agriculture, and environmental studies. Education agents for the India market can register for this session here.  

  • ENZ hosts its first famil since 2019

    Eleven public universities were represented in the Malaysian delegation of senior executives from the Multimedia Technology Enhancement Operations Sdn Bhd (METEOR). METEOR is a consortium of universities that aims to provide advanced solutions through technology. This was an exploratory visit, to enable delegates to discuss a range of opportunities and possible partnerships with New Zealand universities and Te Pūkenga.  

    The visit was exciting on many fronts as our institutions demonstrated their expertise and explored mutually beneficial relationships, regions showcased their attractions, and the famil delegates from Malaysia experienced many aspects of New Zealand. 

    The eight-day visit included Wellington, Canterbury and the Waikato. While the start of the week coincided with a cold southerly storm, this was mitigated by warm hospitality and the promise of sun later in the week.  

    L to r: Lisa Futschek, GM International at ENZ; ENZ’s Chief Executive Grant McPherson; Mr Muhammad Afiq Bin Redzuan, Group Chief Executive Officer at METEOR; and YB Senator Tuan Jaziri Alkaf Abdillah Suffian, after signing an Education Cooperation Agreement.

    The delegation was fortunate to meet with Minister of Education Chris Hipkins during their visit. While in Wellington they also signed an Education Cooperation Agreement with ENZ that provides a framework for our relationship going forward. They also met up with Malaysian students at various institutions and heard about their personal experiences here. 

    The delegation saw trades in action at WELTEC’s trades campus where they observed building apprentices on a block course.

    Famils are important for ENZ as well as for New Zealand institutions, as they establish relationships and strengthen people-to-people links. They are also a key way to showcase some of the best education New Zealand has to offer across different regions.  

    ENZ looks forward to hosting more famils in the coming months, in partnership with institutions and regions throughout New Zealand.
