What our students are saying
"I love the people and the tutors. For me, it’s like an escape from what I was going through. Going from job-to-job. It’s taken me away from that, onto to something better. And just learning new things every day."
“I enjoyed everything. The tutors were cool, helpful and keen on what they did. I made good friends with the other students, and the course gave me skills galore!”
“I learnt so much! Everything I am now is because of everything I’ve learnt at NZMA. I’m just really happy I stuck with it, as I’m employed now.”
“I really enjoyed learning a lot of new skills, and in particular the practical side like drainlaying and excavation, as well as backfilling. It gave me a good understanding of the industry. I also feel that I now have personal direction and goals.”
"I really enjoyed learning a lot of new skills in this area. But, in particular I liked working with copper and steel as I discovered this would fit in with my new role in pipe fitting."
