Overview


Teacher Education

Introduction

Teaching offers a varied, stimulating and rewarding career that provides the opportunity to influence and shape many lives.

΢ҕl offers a number of postgraduate qualifications in teaching, from early childhood through to tertiary level. Some of these programmes offer students the opportunity to train and apply for registration as ΢ҕl New Zealand teachers, following their initial university studies in other areas. Other programmes offer current teachers professional development in particular methods and areas of teaching, or research in contemporary theory and practice.

These programmes are particularly flexible, with part-time and distance options available.

΢ҕl New Zealand is currently experiencing a shortage in qualified teachers, and so employment opportunities for graduates is particularly high.
