When we channel those achievements into championing causes and giving back, that legacy is carried as inspiration for generations to come.

Competenz has recently launched a new micro-credential to improve the level of digital literacy in the manufacturing sector.
"With an aging workforce it’s imperative we enable companies to keep their tradesmen and craftsmen,” says Jahn Vannisselroy, Competenz Sector Manager. “This micro-credential, which we can tailor to a specific company, is giving people the confidence to meet technology head-on.”
The qualification is fully funded under the government’s Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund (TTAF) for employers who enrol their staff before 31 December 2022.

For the fourth successive week, I got two Upper Hutt Leader weekly newspapers in my mailbox.
Is someone getting paid twice or is one of two deliverers doing the wrong street/ wrong section of the area?

Is someone getting paid twice or is one of two deliverers doing the wrong street/ wrong section of the area?
Anyway long overdue is the formation of a Hutt Valley weekly newspaper in amalgamating Lower with Upper. Items of interest and issues in Lower Hutt and its suburbs is of great interest to many who live in Upper Hutt. And the reader might get a bit more out of a single newspaper representing the Hutt region. Better for advertisers surely.

"Hi there my name is Poe and I am a great pup looking for my forever home. I have not had the best start to life so would love a home that understands my quirks and is keen to help me through them. A home that has the patience and time to help me be the best companion I know I can be. I am super social so I could go a home with another playful dog that loves having a good tumble. I am not suited to a home with young children so would love a home with teenagers, who are keen to teach me new things and take me on adventures. Puppy school is something I am looking forward with my new family, learning things and making new friends. I do come with a medical waiver that my new home would need to be aware of. If you think you are the home for me please contact the canine team for more information."
