Apprenticeships & Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund (TTAF)
The Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund (TTAF) also known as free training courses
TTAF makes a range of training and apprenticeship programmes free for learners. It is targeted towards industries where demand from employers for these skills will continue to be strong or is expected to grow, during New Zealand’s recovery period from the impacts of COVID-19.
With funding until December 2022, you can study Construction Trades (Carpentry, Electrical, Painting and Decorating, Plumbing), Community Support and Wellbeing, and Mechanical Engineering.
These programmes are FREE under TTAF, however, it does not cover student service fee or course-related costs.
