Take part in the consultation on the WDC Orders in Council proposals
Through the Reform of Vocational Education, the vocational education sector is undergoing its biggest transformation in 35-years.
As part of the changes, six Workforce Development Councils (WDCs) are being established to provide the industry with greater leadership across vocational education and training. Through WDCs, the industry will have a direct say in the training and skills needs of our workforce.
Consultation is now open on the legislative instruments, known as the Order in Council proposals, to formally establish each WDC.
Kōrero mai - have your say and tell us what you think about each WDC’s name, the industries it covers, and how it’s governed. Go to WDCconsultation.tec.govt.nz
Sign up to attend a consultation Zoom session
As part of the consultation, you are invited to register to attend a Zoom information session to hear more about the proposals.
