Primary ITO has become the final industry training organisation to join Te Pūkenga Work-Based Learning, making it the country’s largest on-the-job-training organisation.
Primary ITO chief executive Nigel Philpott says a new Centre of Vocational Excellence will be a welcome addition to the primary sector learning ecosystem.
Primary ITO has received the Minister of Education’s seal of approval to continue its work as an industry training organisation.
