Waihanga Ara Rau are developing a NEW qualification in swimming pool building. This is in response to industry needs and we would like to thank everyone who has helped shape this qualification so far.
An NZ qualification for swimming pool building would enhance industry reputation, and support employee retention by providing clear career pathways. The formal qualification would ensure a consistent level of expertise, improve service quality, and create a more attractive and sustainable industry for current and future employees. This will lead to end users gaining more trust and respect in the quality of delivery from swimming pool builders.
We would love your thoughts on both the Qualification Document and the supporting Skills Framework document.
Feedback is open until 5pm, Tuesday 26 August 2025.
