You may have seen the recent news of the new Government's intention to disestablish Te Pūkenga | New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology.
Otago Polytechnic and the Staff at the Central Campus - Wānaka are committed to ensuring that organisational changes that are need to be made to meet the Government's expectations does not impact students learning or their experience with us. As details of how this change will be implemented are worked through, we want to reassure you that all programmes of study or training will continue as planned.
