Māori and Pasifika Trades Training (MPTT) Auckland has more than 650 scholarships available for 2019 as part of its work to build a qualified trades workforce. Eligible candidates get their fees paid and one-on-one support from a mentor to find the right job to launch their career.
More than 2,300 young men and women have benefited from the scholarships to fill a shortage of 30,000 skilled employees in the sector.
Potential scholars can register their interest by emailing Shelley Riley, MPTT project coordinator on shelley.riley@maoripasifikatrades.co.nz.
