We are pleased to announce that the Level 3, Level 4, and Level 6 leadership qualifications have been submitted to the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) for evaluation.
It will take 20 working days for the application to be picked up and assigned to an evaluator at NZQA and another 20 working days for the evaluation to be returned for more information.
Separate strands for Leadership and Management have been proposed as part of the Level 5 New Zealand Diploma in Business. This will be submitted to NZQA once the review of all strands of this Diploma is complete.

Te Manu Arataki Leadership project, led by Ringa Hora, is supported by Ohu Ahumahi Workforce Development Councils. “Te Manu Arataki i te kāhui” is a Māori metaphor that acknowledges one’s leadership qualities and compares them to a bird leading a flock, often seen when birds fly in a ‘Skein’ or ‘V’ formation.
Improving leadership capability provides an opportunity to drive further growth in New Zealand’s productivity, and to positively impact businesses and the economy.
Our focus as a workforce development council is to review existing leadership credentials across the vocational education sector, develop new products where appropriate, and facilitate career pathways into leadership.
The project is being carried out in four stages:

Industry professionals and education providers have responded in style to the challenge to find ways to improve leadership in Aotearoa.
As part of the second stage of our Te Manu Arataki Leadership Project, Ringa Hora held 10 webinars and an in-person hui for rangatahi. The feedback has been tremendous, and we have learned a great deal about leadership needs.
This feedback came after Ringa Hora’s research team carried out an extensive environmental scan of New Zealand leadership, which helped inform discussions at the webinars.
Together, we can make a difference and lead our businesses and the New Zealand economy towards a brighter future. Sign up to be involved and stay informed about the project.
