As we begin 2023, it is important to take time to reflect and appreciate our immense efforts in the year just been: that’s why we are delighted to share with you now our first-ever annual report.

This comprehensive review dives deep into our mahi and successes from our establishment on 04 October 2021 through to the end of our first financial year on 30 June 2022.

Some of the highlights include how we are honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi in everything we do, the formation of our pivotal Industry Stakeholder Group (ISG), and how we are putting skills leadership into action. We also recap the key activities of each of our tīma – Corporate Services, Improvements and Operations, Industry Standards, Industry Transformation, and Māori Workforce Development. Our annual report concludes with a wrap-up of our strong financial position.

We extend our thanks to our Co-chairs Dr Troy Coyle and Renata Hakiwai, our Council and ISG members, and all our kaimahi for this marvellous first nine months, which has set a robust foundation for Hanga-Aro-Rau to build on.

We’re energised and ready for the new year: We look forward to continuing to work with you to transform vocational education in Aotearoa.
