Mission Statement
The Maniapoto Training Agency will work towards improving the knowledge and skills of
those people who are committed to self improvement and career development and seek the
opportunity to receive quality and formally recognised training.
Role of Maniapoto Training Agency
The main aim of the Training Agency is to provide education and training for those
people who have been less successful and who may not have lived up the the expectations of
our traditional New Zealand Education System.
The Training Agency endeavours to provide quality vocational training for our less
successful academic achievers, who would often be denied the opportunity to go onto higher
education or training.
The Training Agency understands and promotes the idea that the acquisition of knowledge
and skills is fundamental to the progressive development of the person and the industry
they have chosen to work in. We recognise people who have varying levels of ability
to absorb, retain and practice the skills that they are taught; and training has been
designed and development to take into consideration these individual requirements.
The Training Agency serves the needs of the community by providing a learning environment
for those who wish to further development their skills. We ensure course
participants emerge with the knowledge and skills they require to obtain meaningful
employment and achieve a level of personal development consistent with each individual's
aspirations and goals.
The Training Agency supports the requirements placed upon it by the Treaty of Waitangi and
will make every effort to promote the interests of its Maori students.
The Training Agency requires staff to be well qualified, motivated, high performers and of
integrity. To ensure objectives are met, appropriate training and staff development
will be given so as to be able to achieve the best use of individual staff talent and
potential.
