Youth Public Short Courses

The Learning Place is a Category 1 private training establishment (PTE) and the largest single provider of vocational training in the secondary school sector in Aotearoa. We provide alternative ways to support NCEA achievement by teaching tangible skills for learners to take into employment and life.

Our courses are designed to be relevant, engaging, and combine theoretical and practical learning. Interactive learning experiences and a range of engaging activities help learners understand and practise different concepts and skills. Assessments are created with a combination of unit standards that align with vocational pathway credits.

We now allow parents, caregivers, and students to register learners aged 16-19 for courses advertised around New Zealand.
