At Howick College we are proud to have developed a broad curriculum that allows students the opportunity to gain both academic and vocational qualifications. Our vocational subjects and courses have been developed across a range of learning areas and cater for students who are looking to gain specific work-related skills and experience.

These subjects can be studied on a stand-alone basis or 'packaged' to provide students with a head start to tertiary level education, without the high costs usually associated with tertiary training. The courses aim to link with business and industry and are all assessed against industry approved unit standards.

Credits in these courses all contribute to the National Certificate in Educational Achievement (NCEA) as well as to a number of other national certificates in vocational education.
