Wellcare Education

Providing nationally recognised workforce training

Having a qualified, skilled and knowledgeable workforce is vital to providing people with high-quality home and community-based support.

Wellcare Education is a leading provider of NZQA qualifications for support workers employed in the health and disability sector, maintaining a Category 1 NZQA status (find out more).

We are committed to enabling health and disability providers to achieve their workforce development goals and have successfully trained over 7000 support workers over the past 10 years (see our Tertiary Education Commission [TEC] student achievement record).

Our high-quality training programmes are designed to meet sector and NZQA requirements, and we can support people to gain specialist skills and nationally recognised qualifications.

We provide training to a wide range of people, from employees seeking formal qualifications to people embarking in a career in the health and disability sector for the first time.

Our qualified tutors are skilled in adult learning and teaching practices and provide a range of training delivery methods from one on one to classroom-based seminars.

We understand that people may come to our courses with literacy support requirements, and if needed, we can support them to overcome any reading and writing challenges they may face.

For learners, our training extends their capability and enhances their job satisfaction by strengthening their career pathway.
