VOCATIONAL PATHWAYS
6
For most careers you will need to undertake further education or training after leaving school. This can consist of a tertiary qualification or on-the-job training.
The tools help you identify the type of job you would like, and the study programmes you will need to take to get there. Study options are colour coded into six main areas, all aligned with an industry sector: • Primary Industries • Service Industries • Social and Community Services • Manufacturing and Technology • Construction and Infrastructure • Creative Industries
Vocational pathways is a tool that helps you to see how your strengths, interests and achievements relate to future study options and job opportunities.
VOCATIONAL PATHWAY MANUFACTURING & TECHNOLOGY
If you know what you want to do as a career, the vocational pathway can help you see which subjects you should take, and to which level. If you are unsure about what career you want to go into, the pathways can help you see how your strengths and interests match up with jobs and study options available.

TASTERS Tasters are designed to give students a hands on experience of what it might be like to study at NorthTec. As many students are undecided on what they want to do when they leave school, tasters can provide students with new experiences which create an interest in a pathway on to further study and employment. Tutors can also discuss what subjects students will need to take in Year 11-13 to follow a certain pathway. As our taster programmes do not have credits attached to them, they can provide experiences for students Year 9 to Year 13.

STAR COURSES NorthTec’s STAR courses offer meaningful and real training opportunities for Year 11-13 secondary school students. NorthTec STAR courses provide a pathway to tertiary education and a future career. Students will be able to experience tertiary education as well as gain credits towards their NCEA qualifications.
NCEA Level 1
Manufacturing and Technology Sector
Level 2 Level 3
From hands-on production and assembly to cutting edge research, from massive machines and busy production lines, to individual crafts or computer design, this sector covers a range of options. You’ll be working indoors most of the time, with tools, machinery and equipment, or maybe a computer. You might be fabricating, installing, fixing or maintaining systems, or doing a job involving lots of thinking, planning or making lots of calculations. There’s a mixture of skilled jobs across the sector. In the engineering industry in particular, people have the highest job satisfaction of all jobs. This sector is a big employer – the second largest in New Zealand. It is also a big earner for the New Zealand economy, making up almost half of all the country’s export income. It is a sector the government has identified as a priority area for growth.

You’ll be part of a well-run team that’s committed to getting the job done to meet the client’s specifications. You’ll work indoors and outdoors. Often it’ll be dusty and noisy, but you’ll also get to feel the sun on your skin and the wind on your face. The hours may vary. You move around from site to site, working with lots of different tradespeople, contractors and clients. You’ll have a variety of different tasks to do no matter what your job is, and you’ll use heaps of different tools and types of machinery. The work is physical and active – you won’t need to join a gym to stay fit. It’s hard work, but there are plenty of laughs and jokes with good mates. It can be exciting, from driving a 30-tonne digger to making something out of nothing – where it never existed before. There’s always some paperwork to be done, but there’s also an honest day’s pay for an honest day’s work. You can work for yourself or you can work for someone else. Bottom line: if you like to work hard, respect people, do a quality job and deliver on people’s expectations, you can earn it all – the house, the car, the bach, the boat – without having to win them in the lottery.

You could work in the outdoors, in some of the most stunning landscapes in the world, planting, growing or tending animals, trees, and crops. There’s also plenty of high-tech toys to play with and plenty of on-the-job training to help you learn to use them. If you’re not working directly on the land you may be visiting as an adviser in a service industry – like arboriculture, water or environmental management, the equine industry, or maybe an accountant, mechanic or vet. There’s a huge range and diversity of jobs from hands-on, to science or business roles and heaps of opportunities to learn new skills and move into different areas of each industry. There’s always something new as technology and equipment constantly changes. It’s a big sector for Māori with a large proportion of New Zealand’s forests, fisheries and dairy farms now Māori-owned and operated. No matter what part of the sector you choose to work in, you’re contributing to an important and sustainable sector that’s one of New Zealand’s biggest employers and biggest exporters.

Social and Community Services Sector This sector is all about caring for people and keeping them safe. The range of jobs is huge: from monitoring and protecting people and property (like in corrections, defence, or fire fighting) to caring for people in need (as in healthcare, community and social work, medicine or therapy). You may be working for the government or the private sector; you may be outdoors or in, or moving around from place to place. Your working hours vary – people need care 24/7. So depending on your role you might work in shifts or be on call. This is a large and growing sector with jobs and services that are essential for community well-being and safety. It’s a high-employment, high-growth sector – and demand for the kind of frontline jobs in these industries is expected to continue in future years. New Zealand’s ageing population will need to be housed, managed and cared for. There’s a constant demand for more police, corrections, and security officers; and the need for immigration, customs and quarantine officers is also increasing.
