New Zealand Diploma in Business
Secondary School Study Award - 2010 conditions apply
Students will learn skills and acquire knowledge to effectively participate and manage in a business environment.
The qualification offers a wide range of skills and understanding across a number of areas. It is a nationally recognised qualification which meets the diverse and changing organisational settings of the modern business world. However, one of Aoraki’s strengths is the small classes and flexible timetable giving the opportunity for part-time study while remaining employed. This also allows for more individual attention and a better relationship between students and tutors.

“It is extremely valuable and I really enjoy the interaction and the fact that the classes are not just focussed on the theory but on how it actually applies in the real world.” - Gabrielle Lynch, Diploma in Business, 2009.
“The confidence it has given me is great, especially for someone from another country. You think you are expected to fit in but I have found that being different is not a bad thing because I can contribute from a different angle and enrich both mine and other’s perspectives.” - Henrieta Hamilton-Skurak, Diploma in Business, 2009.
