Moving to The Park

Regent Training Centre is excited and proud to be moving to our new campus at the Ngawha Innovation and Enterprise Park (The Park) in Kaikohe in January 2023. The Park is the place where businesses and the local community thrive together.

Our programmes – including Automotive, Building and Health and Fitness – allow learners to re-engage with education by way of practical training, predominantly in workshops, and raising life skills under the guidance and support of Tutors who have a real heart for taitamariki. At the Park, RTC Building students will further enhance their lives and impact more positively upon their communities by building new dwellings, as part of their training, to house needy whanau. Using a tuakana - teina model, our Building Level 3 students will cement their own learning by leading a build project and supporting our Level 2 students to learn the skills required for that project.

Moving to The Park offers our learners amazing opportunities to learn, gain quali ications, support their community and move on to employment or higher learning opportunities within the Park once they have graduated. A dedicated Skills and Employment Coordinator will work with employers, training providers and learners to create connections and opportunities for all on the Park. We already have a success story as a result of our move, with a 2022 RTC Graduate beginning her apprenticeship with a local builder at the Park in 2023.

If you know of a young person aged

15 - 24 years old who could bene it from gaining quali ications and life skills, then support them by giving RTC a call on 0800 REGENT, there are no fees or costs to the students – and that also includes transport and lunch for eligible students.
