We’re not a university or a Polytech. We’re a wānanga.

We provide a fresh and vibrant alternative in tertiary education in Aotearoa, enhancing the skills and employment opportunities of more than 300,000 graduates. 

One of our main objectives is to promote and preserve the Māori language and culture, and we’ve been proudly doing this for almost 40 years.
  
Our certificates, diplomas, degrees and master’s degrees meet the needs of school leavers, business professionals, empty-nest mums and dads, indigenous academics and kaumātua. 
 
With more than 80 locations nationwide, you can learn in an environment that’s open and welcoming, without having to go far from home. 
  
Culturally rich and inclusive, we believe that what’s good for Māori is good for the world, and we’d love for you to come and experience that.
