GRADUATE PROFILE Trevor Fitzell
CERTIFICATE IN AUTOMOTIVE WORKSHOP AND REPAIR While studying at John Paul College, Trevor Fitzell was advised to first complete an automotive programme at Waiariki Institute of Technology and a local business would consider him for an apprenticeship. Following this advice, Trevor enrolled on the Certificate in Automotive Workshop and Repair. Trevor completed the Level 4 certificate 24 weeks later and he not only gained the basics for working in the automotive trade, he also earned the National Certificate in Motor Industry (Entry Skills) (Level 2), which is embedded within Waiariki’s qualification. With these accomplishments firmly in his pocket, Trevor happily accepted Shorland Slater’s offer to begin his apprenticeship. Two years on and Trevor has nearly completed his apprenticeship and has continued his relationship with Waiariki by attending apprentice night classes. “I really enjoyed the hands-on in the retail workshop at Waiariki, working on customers’ vehicles, and the interaction with the tutors and other students,” Trevor said. “I would recommend to anyone who is looking at working in the automotive industry to do this programme at Waiariki.”
AUTOMOTIVE Do you enjoy figuring out how things work? Can you remember yourself from an early age taking things apart and putting them back together? The automotive industry has continuously changed the way we work, live, travel and do business, and a career in this industry is challenging and varied. The automotive sector is not limited to just mechanical repairs or working only with cars. When defined as a vehicle that carries its own engine, an automobile can mean anything from cars, motor bikes, airplanes, boats, jet skis, buses and vans to trucks, tractors, and earth movers. If you love working with engines, you can turn your passion into a profession.

What industry opportunities are there? With the emphasis on improving infrastructure, there is a shortage of engineers and welders in New Zealand. A huge number of infrastructure projects are set to kick off in New Zealand over the next decade which could be threatened by a shortage of engineers, welders and technical people. By joining this exciting and challenging industry you could help overcome this shortage. Depending on what you specialise in, you can choose where you work. Anywhere from indoors or outdoors, hot or cold, office desk or workshop. There can also be plenty of variety in locations and sites. In a time of rapid social and technological changes, the need for creative thinkers is greater now than ever before. If you like to question, explore, invent, discover and create, then engineering and welding could be the ideal path for you.

CARPENTRY
GRADUATE PROFILE Carpentry
KEN SAMSON (LEFT) AND JOSHUA JELLARD (FAR RIGHT) WITH WAIARIKI’S MIKE FOGARTY CERTIFICATE IN CARPENTRY (PRE-TRADE) Collaboration between Waiariki Institute of Technology and local business owners is an important component to the educational programmes at Waiariki. These valuable relationships provide opportunities for Waiariki students to gain practical, hands-on training. It also allows the industry experts to provide input into the training which keeps Waiariki’s programmes relevant and applicable. These relationships quite often lead to employment offers to Waiariki students who impressed business owners during their onsite training, and Ken Samson and Joshua Jellard are two such examples. Ken and Joshua are both graduates of the Certificate in Carpentry (Pre-Trade) and are now employed with Graham Pedersen Builders in Rotorua where they are being supported through ITaB apprenticeships. “I have offered work experience opportunities to a number of Waiariki students and have found them to be very keen,” says Graham Pedersen, who takes an active role in the interaction. “Waiariki staff are supportive and I enjoy being part of the programme both with students and sitting on the Local Advisory Committee.” Mike Fogarty, programme area leader for carpentry, construction and electrical at Waiariki, coordinates these opportunities for students and employers. “These relationships we have with industry are an invaluable part of Waiariki’s training,” he says. “We would certainly not be seeing the success we are without the support and commitment from these businesses.”
CARPENTRY Does working in a variety of settings with a variety of people appeal to you? Just think, yesterday you were outside in the sunshine building a deck for a recreation centre. Today you’re inside completing window sills on an amazing residential property. Whatever your job for each day, a career in carpentry is hugely rewarding and you get to see the results of your efforts for many years after.
Skills and interests you may already have: Enjoy working with tools, machinery and materials
such as wood, concrete and steel Creative with a sense of style Desire to see projects through from start to finish Reasonable level of fitness Practical ability with a good level of concentration and accuracy Get along well with trades people, building professionals and clients
We look forward to teaching you: Ability to solve mathematical problems quickly and
accurately How to interpret and develop plans and specifications Preparing estimates and quotes for costs and materials A range of applied carpentry skills Knowledge of residential house construction and the construction industry
What industry opportunities are there? Opportunities for skilled and experienced carpenters are on the increase. Another bonus is that New Zealand trained carpenters have great career opportunities worldwide. Whether you are contracted, employed or running your own business, carpenters usually specialise in either residential or commercial construction. Residential carpenters usually work for a builder or a building firm (which could be your own), many of which employ two to 10 people. Commercial construction is dominated by the larger building firms, such as Fulton Hogan, Hawkins Construction, Mainzeal or Fletcher Building, who employ carpenters but are increasingly subcontracting work to mid-sized building companies.

GRADUATE PROFILE Rowan Monk
Rowan Monk has spent the majority of his life in the forest industry. Furthering his education at Waiariki’s School of Forestry and Primary Industries helped him when he truly needed it, he said. “I ran my own business in the forest industry where I had been a forestry contractor for a few years. I had an accident at work that changed my life forever. It meant I had to change what I knew, which was hard physical labour, and find something I could handle post-accident, which was more sedentary.” A graduate of the Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety and the Diploma in Forestry, Rowan is currently working as the health, safety, training and recruitment officer for CNI Forest Management Ltd in Rotorua where he has definitely put his Waiariki qualifications and his own experience to good use. When asked what has been most valuable for him during his studies, Rowan remarked, “Just having an understanding of what I do and why. As I have many years of experience, it is great to be able to really understand why we do what we do. It enhances my knowledge considerably.”
HEALTH AND SAFETY Skills and interests you may already have:
An investigative mind Working with and training others Great written and oral communication skills Organisational and decision making skills
We look forward to teaching you: Hazard prevention and risk assessment skills Knowledge of regulations and codes of practice Knowledge of industry (possibly a variety of industries) Administration skills for recording visits, presenting evidence, etc.
What industry opportunities are there? The increased responsibility put on employers to ensure the health and safety of their employees has created more job opportunities and is expected to continue increasing. Health and safety officers are employed across a broad range of industries such as forestry, manufacturing, farming and construction, and are in demand both locally and internationally. With the right blend of business, administrative and technical skills, health and safety advisers can rise to more senior management positions.
