Bachelor of Humanities

Meet Derek Ereatara who shares his journey with Awanuiārangi. The Bachelor of Humanities programme marked a turning point in Derek’s life.

“The content – indigenous studies, policy and business – fit right in with what I wanted. I knew it would help me personally and in my work with whānau in the health sector. “It helped me to think differently, that opens up your world view.” he says.

Looking at everything with fresh eyes “shifted, enhanced and reinforced” his focus, particularly in working with rangatahi who need one-to-one support.

Awanuiārangi was like a second home, and still is. You just feel welcome.

We love seeing our apprentices making waves in the industry.
Wade Peek was recently named Plastics Apprentice of the Year, is definitely one to watch. With two qualifications under his belt, he’s been earmarked as a future plastics industry leader.

He hopes to one day start his own manufacturing business and says: "I really want to pass on what I have learnt to support apprentices in their training. I also want to be able to teach people outside of the plastics industry about what we do, as I truly believe we can't solve any of the really important environmental issues that surround plastic unless as many people as possible understand it."

Hello everyone, I hope your all keeping safe and healthy during this most testing of times for us all.
As with most businesses I have had to cease my regular customer visits and onsite technical support .

I am however available to provide technical support over the phone/webchat and via Technical Assistance apps that allow me to securely remote into various devices (PC, Laptops, Mobiles & Tablets) and assist as required with you, so if you do have any technical issues or problems please feel free to give me a call and we can discuss the options and make a plan accordingly.

As always phone based inquiries and advice and are always free so if you have a question regarding that stubborn piece of IT just give me a ring and I will do what I can to assist, and if a remote session is required I have structured my remote support activity into 15 minute segments and will be able to invoice by the quarter hour.

My family and I send my best wishes to you all, and hope you all stay fit and well over the lockdown period, and I look forward to resuming my full onsite support services to you after we have come through the lock down period.

Kind regards Kevin
