As New Zealand’s vocational education system transitions, Waihanga Ara Rau remains committed to supporting the construction and infrastructure industry, our key stakeholders, and our people.

The Government has announced changes that will replace Workforce Development Councils (WDCs) with Industry Skills Boards (ISBs). Further consultation is underway on the future of work-based learning. While these changes take shape, we focus on delivering value to the industry and ensuring a smooth transition.

We encourage industry partners to stay engaged in the process. The presentation we shared at our recent webinar provides more details about the proposed models for work-based learning and consultation timelines.

Waihanga Ara Rau will continue to advocate for industry needs and support those affected by these changes.
