Nau mai! Nau mai!
Welcome to EmployNZ!
We are delighted that you have chosen to enrol on one of our programmes. Our tutors, administrators and management are all committed to helping you achieve your goals and collectively they will make your time with us as comfortable, safe, and productive as possible. We hope you enjoy your time with us and encourage you to discuss any problems or concerns you have with your tutor or other staff member who will be more than happy to help.
EmployNZ is here to meet the needs of our students, clients and stakeholders and this wiki, is a part of how we communicate the way we do things at EmployNZ and to share with you some of our policies. Traditionally we have issued a hard copy Student Handbook. This wiki is the digital version of what was our Student Handbook. It has been designed to be viewed online and in the MyEmployNZ App ensuring that you have access to the information whenever you need to access it.
The Purpose of the Student Handbook Wiki
EmployNZ is committed to providing clear, accurate and relevant information to our students before, during and after their study with us and ensuring that the information is explained and understood. With this in mind, please use this handbook as a guide to refer to. It’s purpose is to ensure that you are aware of our code of conduct and your obligations as a student. It also provides clarity on the informal and formal processes that you and our organisation will follow if problems are encountered.
There are 3 sections of the Student Handbook:
- Section 1: All EmployNZ Students applies to all students.
- Section 2: Domestic Fee Paying Students is only relevant to you if you are a fee paying Domestic student, and;
- Section 3: International Students is only relevant to you if you are an International fee paying student.
Throughout this handbook, references are made to forms, templates, check-lists and other documents (Forms). The appendices of this handbook is where you will find these as/if necessary. If you are unsure of the terminology or language used in this handbook a description of key definitions is located in the Glossary of Terms at the back.
A staff member will clarify the contents of this handbook, your curriculum and any specifics relevant to the programme you are enrolled on. At the completion of this orientation you are required to sign the Learner Contract and Learner Authorisation forms at the back of this handbook and any other documentation as relevant to your programme of study. Your signature on these forms in combination with that on your Enrolment form will be an acknowledgement that you will abide by our rules and regulations, commit to your obligations as a learner and are aware of the consequences if you do not.
EmployNZ will retain the original copy of these forms and at your request provide you with a copy.
For reference purposes you may retain a hard copy of this handbook. A copy is also available in your Training facility’s common room or it can be provided to you upon request from a Staff Member.
