They are dedicated to providing a stimulating and supportive environment for your ongoing academic and professional development.
A strong ethical base
All Unitec's education programmes are underpinned by values that acknowledge students as diverse individuals with widely differing needs. Throughout your study, you will focus on improving your practice through self-reflection and critical enquiry. With continuous advancement of your knowledge and improvement of your skills, you will become an effective teacher, manager or researcher.
Real-world learning
As with all Unitec programmes, you will study for work, in work and through work. Work placements and practicums are included in many of our teaching programmes, as well as opportunities to conduct and apply research to improve your practice at every level.
Unitec works with the New Zealand Action Research and Review Centre to deliver Ministry of Education contracts and site-based leadership learning programmes.
