For a solid future, get a trade!
If you know a young person who wants a career with variety, a good income and the potential to be their own boss, then getting a trade is a smart move.
At Ara Institute of Canterbury we've got lots of trades courses starting in Christchurch and Timaru in February. Options include painting & decorating, electrical & engineering, plumbing & gasfitting, construction, carpentry & joinery, motor industry trades and He Toki and Pasifika trades training.
Students learn from inspirational mentors in real-life learning environments and get lots of hands-on experience to prepare for the workplace.

Poll: What should happen to the cathedral?
In August, restoration of the Christ Church Cathedral was put on hold. Church leaders have no idea when work might restart.
Last year, the Government declined to provide further funding beyond $25 million, and the church, who had raised $24m in donations and contributed $49m including insurance, said further public support will be required to find the revenue required.
What do you think the next steps should be for the cathedral?
