What is Tūāpapa?
Tūāpapa Online Study Hub
Tūāpapa Online Study Hub is a free resource hub filled with resources to support your study. From time management to academic writing and AI, the Tūāpapa Study Hub has many resources to help you achieve your best.
Tūāpapa Kaiako
We have a number of programmes with dedicated Tūāpapa kaiako to assist and help you along your study journey.
Tūāpapa Short Courses
Tūāpapa short courses provide short, engaging, interactive learning. If you do these before you begin your programme of study they will be completed over a 4-6 week period and up to 3 short courses can be taken at a time. Tūāpapa short courses are NZQA approved and will show on your record of study upon successful completion of any required assessments.
Flexible study options
If you're interested in Tūāpapa short courses, we offer start dates that allow completion before your programme begins. For more information, chat to our Kaimahi.
You can study either fully online or you can choose to study online and attend tutorials at the Petone/Porirua campus. Content will be delivered via Moodle (our online learning platform). This will require you to have a computer/laptop and internet access at home. A tutor will be there to support you on your journey through the short courses.
Completion of the Tūāpapa short courses will not affect your fees free eligibility.
Entry requirements
These short courses are in place for ākonga who have enrolled in a Whitireia or WelTec programme.
How to apply
You can apply for your programme through the online application form as normal. During the application process you may be recommended to complete short courses or you may choose to complete short courses to support your study success. If you choose to complete short courses you can enrol by emailing enrolments@wandw.ac.nz.
Whitireia and WelTec are a business division of Te Pūkenga - New Zealand Institute of Skills and Technology.
