With greater emphasis on qualifications being required from Local and Regional Councils, NZ Transport Agency, ACC, DoL, Territorial Authorities, the corporate sector and other Principals the requirement to show that employees are trained for the work they do is becoming a necessity in today’s competitive environment. Meeting the Industry Standards and being able to gain external training, assessment and qualifications all contribute to a company’s marketability and attributes.

Background to Training

I have been involved in adult education since 1976; first as an NZ Army Instructor at the School of Military Engineering, then training my own employees in the 80's, followed by compliance training in the 90's. In 2000 I established Land Based training - Construction Ltd in partnership with Land Based Training Ltd (LBT) a Private Training Establishment (PTE) that specialised in TEC funded Agricultural and Pastoral employment related training. 

My role was to use my expertise from operating my contracting, compliance consultancy and training background to expand LBT's accreditation by writing training and assessment resources, deal with ITO's and liaise with existing clients to up-skill their workforce. As an accredited National Trainer for Transit New Zealand I trained approximately 10% of the 40,000 people trained as Traffic Controllers to 2008 when they became the NZ Transport Agency (NZTA). 

I presently provide training on behalf of NZTA, polytechnics, Employment Relations Education and several Industry Training Organisations (ITO).
