Over the last three months, Te Ara Tautoko Support Pathway trainee support workshops have been running across the country, offering mentoring and practical support to help trainees progress in their apprenticeships.

Connexis CSAM Amy Young has worked closely with Rotorua Lakes District Council, arranging workshops for their trainees and opening them to other local companies.
Two successful workshops have been delivered so far. The sessions were led by mentor Mark Baldock, who helped make the learning accessible and practical.
Trainees shared how valuable the workshops were:
● “Having a few more courses during the year will be beneficial for everyone – I was able to complete multiple units in one day.”
● “The tutor made every question easy to understand, which made each workbook easy to complete.”
● “The workshops helped me understand the requirements and shorten my answers – I feel more confident moving forward.”
These workshops are part of our ongoing commitment to supporting trainees to succeed, gain skills, and achieve their goals. We look forward to continuing these sessions throughout the year to benefit even more trainees.
For more information on the workshops, including how you or your trainees can get involved, please contact your local CSAM.
