The Employment Skills course is an alternative way to achieve NCEA and is designed to assist Year 12 and Year 13 students to achieve NCEA L1, L2 and L3.
The programme involves a mixture of learning at school and work experience. There are also opportunities to do one day a week at MIT studying Level 2 courses and gaining credits in subjects such as Automotive Engineering, Building, Hairdressing and Logistics. You can also do Gateway courses both on and off-site such as Event Management, Scaffolding, Aged Care, Plumbing, Health and Safety and First Aid.
In summary, you can achieve NCEA credits with a combination of learning at school, work experience, Gateway and MIT courses throughout the year.
At the end of your Year 13 year, we can also assist you to transition into MIT (and AUT, Unitec etc.), getting a job or applying for apprenticeships.
You must have written permission from your Parents/Caregivers to take part in this course. Please feel free to drop into C12 and have a chat to Ms Lui-Webster if you want to know more about this programme.
