The Western Institute of Technology at Taranaki (WITT) or Te Kura Matatini o Taranaki, is a government-funded tertiary institute providing education to people within the region and from around the world.As the local hub of learning in this region, WITT is here to serve Taranaki. Our role is to cater to the needs of learners, to play our part in addressing national skills shortages, to keep talented people in the region, and to provide our key industries and local businesses the skilled workforce that they need.From degrees and diplomas to apprenticeships and short courses, WITT delivers industry-relevant training to people at all stages of the learning journey. WITT learners are based at our campuses in New Plymouth and Hāwera, or undertaking blended/online study. Our industry-experienced tutors are focussed on providing learners with hands-on, practical education that often involves work placements, industry projects and internships. We pride ourselves on our comprehensive and inclusive support services, and our learners benefit from a low student-to-tutor ratio. WITT has an increasing range of blended delivery, part-time and standalone courses available to those who need flexible study options.Learners leave WITT as work-ready graduates, equipped with industry-relevant qualifications, networks, and skills that will enable them to contribute to the needs of our community and businesses. We're committed to ensuring learners are not only equipped with the skills and knowledge required to get the job they want, but they're supported to gain the kind of real-life experience that'll set them up for success.
