We were delighted to welcome our first cohort of Bachelor of Building Surveying and Control learners to the programme this morning.
Our Bachelor of Building Surveying and Control programme was officially launched by Minister for Building and Construction Chris Penk at the annual Building Officials Institute of New Zealand (BOINZ) conference in Wellington this May.
It is the first degree of its kind in New Zealand, and it will provide the education needed for gaining a long-term career in the Building Surveying industry.
Our learners will carry out their studies in class, online, and in the workplace.
Today, they were at our Manukau Campus meeting the team and getting an introduction to the programme.
Today’s proceedings started with a Mihi Whakatau. Learners then had the opportunity to hear from Future Skills Group Chief Executive Sam Alavi and BOINZ Chief Executive Nick Hill.
We shared a morning tea, and then learners were introduced to our team of Building Surveying and Control lecturers as well as our Student Support Team.
The Bachelor of Building Surveying and Control gives learners the knowledge and skills they need to carry out management tasks, survey buildings, and assess building applications against legal requirements and regulations in the building regulatory environment.
We are grateful to our industry partners who assisted with the development of the programme.
