The Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) is working with the sector to develop a nationwide careers system strategy that delivers for everyone in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Developing a new careers system strategy
In 2017 the TEC became the lead government agency responsible for careers after merging with Careers New Zealand. A careers system strategy was finalised in 2019 with input from the education sector, employers, careers practitioners and learners.
Many of the initiatives in that initial strategy are now complete or well advanced. The TEC has also listened to calls from the sector around the need for a refreshed, broader strategy.
The new careers system strategy will focus on ensuring quality, professional careers guidance is available to all New Zealanders, at all stages of their career journey. The TEC will work closely with key stakeholders to ensure it is fit-for-purpose and sustainable. The strategy will take into account related strategies in the education sector, such as the Tertiary Education Strategy.
We will publish information and updates on the strategy’s development on this page.
