Those who gain a New Zealand early childhood qualification are well-prepared to work overseas, according to the latest issue of the New Zealand Education Review magazine ‘Teach International’.

The article entitled: “Offshore opportunities: early childhood teaching abroad” also highlights the fact that the New Zealand early childhood curriculum is highly regarded overseas, and that NZ-trained teachers should have no trouble finding overseas work. The full article can be read on the NZ Education Review website.

New Zealand Tertiary College (NZTC) is one such institution offering early childhood teaching qualifications in New Zealand. We are one of the largest providers of early childhood teacher education in New Zealand and we are a leader internationally in the areas of distance and online education.

We offer several teaching qualifications to New Zealand-based students, including the Bachelor of Teaching (Early Childhood Education) and Graduate Diploma in Teaching (Early Childhood Education), which qualify people to work in early childhood programs in New Zealand, Australia, Canada, the UK and the USA.

In addition, through our online mode of study, NZTC is now offering overseas students a new opportunity to gain an early childhood qualification. We are currently offering our introductory Certificates in Early Childhood Education (Levels 5 and 6) to students in India. See our NZTC India website for more details.

Our overseas qualifications are also internationally-recognised, and have the added benefit of allowing students who have completed one or more years of study to transition into the Bachelor and Graduate Diploma qualifications in New Zealand.
