About the program

Empowering Associate Teachers

Our Associate Teacher Development Program is a comprehensive initiative created collaboratively by New Zealand Tertiary College and ECE Learning Unlimited. It has been designed to support and enhance the skills of Associate Teachers (ATs), enabling them to effectively mentor and guide student teachers. This program provides a structured pathway for professional growth, ensuring that ATs are well-equipped to foster the development of future teachers.

Mentorship Training

We equip Associate Teachers with the necessary tools and strategies to effectively support and mentor student teachers. Through targeted training sessions, ATs will learn how to provide constructive feedback, foster a positive learning environment, and address the unique needs of student teachers.

This pathway includes various stages of development, from initial training to advanced mentorship techniques, ensuring that ATs can progress and grow in their roles. With the option to enter post graduate studies with NZTC.
