Heke Toiora Whānau
Diploma in Social Work
He aha te mea nui o te ao? He tangata, he tangata, he tangata! Are you after a rewarding career focused on working with whānau to uplift their wellbeing?
This one year diploma will introduce you to a uniquely Māori perspective on whānau wellness. If your passion is people and helping others, then this tohu will ignite your passion and set you up on a pathway in the social or community services sector.
Mātauranga Māori and whakawhanaungatanga provide the foundations for the promotion of wellbeing, iwi and hapū planning, and hui organisation. You will gain the entry level skills and knowledge required to begin working with Māori to improve the social wellbeing of whānau, hapū and iwi. You will also develop kaupapa Māori research skills and a working knowledge of social policy, legislation, Māori policy development and practices relevant to whānau wellness.
Iwi, hapū and te reo Māori are an integral part of all Toiora Whānau programmes. This diploma is the first year of the four year Poutuarongo Toiora Whānau degree and from 1 July 2020 is eligible for the government's Targeted Training and Apprenticeships Fund.
