BUSINESS COLLEGE
www.edenz.ac.nz Established 1988
Overview EDENZ Colleges was first registered in 1988, teaching English language, and since then has developed courses in response to students’ needs, including TESOL, Film Production, and business courses. We attract students of many nationalities from Asia, Europe, South America, and the Middle East. Since 1999, EDENZ Business College has been offering a variety of Certificates and Diplomas in both general and specialized areas of business, such as Management, Marketing, and Accountancy in particular. These qualifications can be used as pathways to degree study, but some can also be used as pathways to Residence. We are constantly reviewing our programmes and courses to ensure that they are relevant to student and employment needs. In 2012 we began a partnership with the Eastern Institute of Technology (EIT) a government funded degree awarding institution, to offer degree and graduate level courses at our campus in Auckland. Graduates of our courses are well equipped with good written and oral communications skills, flexibility and problem solving that New Zealand employers want. All our teachers are highly experienced in teaching, and in the field that they teach. They are dedicated to helping every student reach their goals.
New Zealand Qualification structure We offer Certificate courses at Level 4 (pre-university level), and Diploma courses at Level 5 (1st year University), or Level 6 (2nd year) and Level 7 (3rd year), which can be combined to make a Bachelor Degree in Business, in partnership with EIT.
Also in partnership with EIT, we offer Bachelor of Computing Systems, one year Graduate Diplomas (Level 7) in Management. We plan to offer further EIT qualification in the near future.

Work & Study in New Zealand The current New Zealand government policy provides advantages to students:
• A permanent skilled job, or job offer, related to the Diploma, will almost certainly lead to Residence.
• A Student Visa for any of our Diploma programs will be for the study period plus one month, and entitles the student to work 20 hours per week during study times and full time during vacations.
• Normally, it is fairly easy for students to find work, both part-time, and on completion, but that depends on personality and persistence of the student. (Our surveys show that 85% of students have part-time jobs within 2 months of arrival)
• Completion of a Level 7 Diploma (or 2 years Level 5 and/or Level 6) entitles the graduate to 12 months Graduate Job Search Visa to find a permanent job.
• Normally, a student could expect to earn enough to live modestly while studying. However, to get Visa approval, they must prove that they have the funds to support themselves
without working. • During their study + 12 month Graduate Job Search Visa period graduates are likely to find they can support themselves, and save enough to repay a good portion of their tuition fees.
• We provide Job Search Support to help students find part-time jobs, but with more emphasis on full-time jobs after completion.

Questions from parents Is New Zealand safe?
New Zealand is one of the safest countries in the world. Like every country, there is some crime, but if students are sensible, the risks are very low. There is no religious tension in New Zealand.
How safe are the fees that I pay?
EDENZ is registered with the New Zealand government (NZQA), and is required to hold students fees in a Trust Account, so that they can be refunded if the student does not start the course for some reason. Students enrolled on EIT courses will be on an EIT visa, and their fees are government guaranteed.
Is New Zealand nice to live in? The 2011 Mercer Quality of Living Survey ranked Auckland 3rd equal place in the world on its list, while The Economist’s World’s Most Livable Cities index of 2011 ranked Auckland in 9th place.
Can EDENZ arrange accommodation for me? Yes, in fact you can stay in one of our shared apartments on the top two levels of our Airedale Street Campus. It’s a great way to save on the cost of public transport and you’ll never be late for class! Two hostel supervisors are in residence 24/7 to maintain student safety and monitor behaviour. You can also stay with a real kiwi family and practice your English outside of class - we can arrange a carefully selected Homestay family for you. Many business students go to a Homestay for their first few weeks, before finding friends to share an apartment with.
Can I keep in contact easily? The internet is widely available, and students have plenty of access for email. Many students find it simple and cheap to get a new SIM card for their GSM phone while in New Zealand.
