Gone are the days of getting one qualification out of school to see you through your working life. Now, upskilling, online courses and on-the-job training are all part of making your way up the career ladder. 

We want to talk to people who have completed micro-credentials, bitesize qualifications for specific skills. 

Perhaps you've pieced together a full qualification by doing online courses, or maybe you've taken a workshop rather than investing in a six-month course. We'd love to hear from you - email josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz

Experience the future of learning...

AGE School

Nobody can really predict the specific changes we will witness over the next 50 years. The only certainty is change itself. To survive and flourish in such a world, our children will need a lot of mental flexibility and great reserves of emotional balance.

You are warmly invited to our Open Day.… View more

You are warmly invited to our Open Day.
Thursday 12th March 9:30 - 10:30am.
9 Huron Street, Takapuna.

For almost 30 years now, scientists have known that intellect cannot work at its best without emotional intelligence. Yet there is still such little time dedicated to emotional literacy in schools.

At Age School we are reimagining education by putting just as much importance on developing emotional intelligence as we are on developing traditional academic intelligence.
