Regional Facilitation

Welcome to the website for regional facilitation.

The aim of regional facilitation is to articulate the region's needs and priorities in relation to tertiary education. We've taken on the responsibility of ensuring this happens in the Waikato, working alongside the Wānanga, University and other education providers.

Each year, we facilitate a steering group and working parties made up of key stakeholders who gather information and views from businesses, iwi, employers, industry groups and community organisations. The steering group then develops an annual statement that identifies tertiary education gaps/priorities and highlights future challenges and opportunities for developing the skills and capabilities of our region's workforce.

We welcome your interest and invite you to contribute to this vital, on-going discussion.
