Create the future you want with Te Pūkenga NMIT

Booking a career chat is an engaging way to learn more about NMIT and have any questions answered. NMIT career advisors can even connect your goals with the right learning journey.

Following her career chat, Nina Barbezat, a Whanganui-based high school teacher, plans to enrol in the Graduate Certificate in Career Development at Te Pūkenga NMIT. Nina found she can study both remotely and in her own time, so she can continue working while she upskills. “I’m looking to future proof my later years.”

Nina already supports ākonga with career advice, but she believes it is time to put some accredited theory behind her conversations. “I’m looking forward to walking the walk, since I’m talking it.”

After discussing her work experience, Nina discovered she will be granted permission to enter the

Level 7 graduate certificate, providing her with the learning experience she needs, rather than spending her time on concepts she is already familiar with.

Nina enjoyed the career chat as she was able to talk to a real person and accurately get her thoughts and questions out on the table. “I loved the chat— it felt like I was talking to an old friend. I’m old school, so I don’t want to talk to AI,” she said.
