Adult education driving Waikato’s growth
Learning doesn’t stop after school or a qualification. In Waikato, adult education is boosting employability, strengthening the workforce, and driving economic growth.

Fraser ACE offers flexible programs designed for busy adults. With short taster courses one night a week, learners can develop skills without long-term commitments. The low-pressure environment encourages participation from all backgrounds, while practical, hands-on learning ensures skills are immediately useful in daily and professional life.
Fraser ACE is dedicated to inclusivity, offering a welcoming environment for all, especially Māori, Pacific peoples, and others facing barriers to education. Its programs reduce inequality, strengthen community ties, and create a diverse, cohesive workforce. Ready to grow? Visit Fraser Ace or contact comed@fraser.school.nz or 07 846 8624.
