We work with learners, migrants, employers, government agencies, iwi, industry, and community organisations to design and deliver free programmes that respond to today’s needs and tomorrow’s opportunities.
Whether you’re looking to build new skills, strengthen your workforce, enter employment, or support your community, EBE provides practical, training that helps people and organisations achieve real outcomes.
From employment and digital skills to workplace training, hospitality, English language programmes, and industry qualifications, we’re committed to creating pathways that lead to brighter futures.
Through practical, industry-focused programmes, we help people gain the skills, confidence, and qualifications needed to succeed while working alongside employers and communities to build stronger, more capable workplaces across Aotearoa.

The best learning happens through experience.
Our programmes focus on practical, hands-on activities that build real skills, real confidence, and real opportunities for individuals, workplaces, and communities.
We support local ākonga to build practical skills. Our free programmes focus on real-world learning that helps you gain the confidence to move into work, further training, or new opportunities.
We support international learners and those new to Aotearoa. Our English language programmes support you to improve communication, build confidence, and prepare for life in New Zealand.
We work with employers to deliver fully funded workplace training tailored to the specific needs of your business. Our programmes improve health and safety awareness, increase productivity, and build a more capable, confident workforce.
We work with communities to improve access to education and strengthen participation. Our programmes build skills, confidence, and connections, contributing to stronger, more connected communities.
Guided by the principle of manaakitanga, we prioritise respect, responsibility and care. We see the whole person. Your wellbeing and your identity, shape how we support you.
Real life, hands on learning. Not theory. You don't have to adapt to fit a system, EBE adapts to you. Your circumstances, your goals, your growth, your future.
We understand that learning goes deeper when people feel seen and valued. EBE is grounded in cultural responsiveness, creating a space where everyone belongs.
Difference is respected and no one is left behind. Whether you are new to Aotearoa, wanting to up-skill, or looking for new opportunities, you will find a safe place here.
From workplace training and job placement support to English language training and beyond, our programmes span a diverse range of industries, skills, and learning pathways, creating lasting outcomes and meaningful opportunities for learners, employers, and communities.
Our programmes are fully funded for eligible learners, employers, and community organisations.
Programmes are designed to build confidence, strengthen workplace capability, and develop the practical skills needed for everyday life and employment.
Whether you’re looking to learn new skills, develop your workforce, or support your community, we offer a wide range of programmes designed to help you achieve your goals.
