Interim Establishment Board

The Establishment Board has been appointed to provide strategic leadership and governance as Primary ITO establishes an industry-owned Private Training Establishment (PTE).


The Board will oversee the establishment of the new organisation, ensuring it is built on strong governance, sound commercial foundations and a clear focus on delivering high-quality vocational education for New Zealand's food and fibre industries. Drawing on expertise from across governance, agribusiness, vocational education and the wider primary sector, the Board will help guide the organisation through this important period of change while maintaining a strong commitment to employers, learners and industry.
