Study here, work here.
At Ara Institute of Canterbury, we’re committed to providing trades training opportunities that meet the employment needs of our local communities and lead to local jobs. Mathew Jack experienced this first hand when he took a course in heavy automotive engineering at our Timaru campus. After Mathew completed his eight-month course, he found employment with Smallbone in Ashburton, where he lives.
He says the “excellent training” he received prepared him well for the job. “It set me up to excel in an exciting and demanding career.” In Timaru, we’ve got programmes in engineering trades, electrical, automotive and painting and decorating starting in February. You can learn all about them here.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
