Capability development
Te Wānanga o Aotearoa understands the importance of providing learning
and development opportunities that equip and empower kaimahi to achieve
excellence. By supporting kaimahi to expand their skills and knowledge, we
ensure that our tauira receive the knowledge, resources and support necessary
for them to achieve their aspirations.
In 2012, our kaimahi attended 922 learning and development events. These
ranged from workshops and training to conferences and academic study. The
following table shows learning events attended by kaimahi in 2012.
Wānanga Ora
Each year, Te Wānanga o Aotearoa completes a kaimahi satisfaction survey
called Wānanga Ora. The survey helps us gather information on kaimahi
understanding of the organisation’s strategic direction, values, goals,
performance and satisfaction with management. In 2012, the survey response
rate increased by 11.5% to 58.5% compared with the 2011 response rate.
Within the job satisfaction measures, 93.6% of kaimahi felt that their work
was of significance to them, and 91.0% said they were proud to work for Te
Wānanga o Aotearoa. Within the strategy section, 90.2% of kaimahi believed
that Te Wānanga o Aotearoa delivers education that drives positive cultural,
social and economic transformation, and 89.7% of kaimahi felt that Te Wānanga
o Aotearoa reduces barriers to tertiary education.
