Muka Tangata has been working with representatives and leaders across the people, food and fibre sector, and from other Workforce Development Councils, to design a new formal leadership course for emerging leaders.
The micro-credential will support people moving into leadership roles to become more confident in themselves and what they’re doing, enabling them to be reflective, resilient and versatile.
The new micro-credential is being developed to replace an existing primary industries micro-credential and an informal leadership course that has been delivered in the horticultural sector over the last two years. The new leadership micro-credential is being informed by Food and Fibre Centre for Vocational Excellence research and will support a leadership ecosystem for Aotearoa New Zealand’s people, food and fibre sector.
Milestones:
16 February – March 2024: Public consultation.
12 April 2024: “Emerging Leadership in People, Food and Fibre industries” micro-credential (Level 4, 15 credits) submitted to NZQA for approval to be listed on the NZQCF. We have received signed attestations from industry peak bodies, providers, rural leaders, and industry representatives in support of this draft micro-credential.
