ECE study scholarships for aspiring teachers

Early Childhood Education

Are you ready to take the next step in your ECE career? New Zealand Tertiary College (NZTC)’s teaching programs - now available to study through limited time scholarship opportunities - will empower you with the skills and knowledge needed to teach confidently within the sector.

We are pleased to share that the New Zealand Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care (Level 5) and the first year of the Bachelor of Teaching (ECE) are currently reduced to only $999.00.

The Graduate Diploma in Teaching (ECE) is now $1,899.00 for the 1.33 year program duration, usually $8,231.00, and is ideal for degree graduates of any discipline.

Both the Graduate Diploma in Teaching (ECE) and Bachelor of Teaching (ECE) feature a practical learning component, and graduates can apply for New Zealand Teacher Registration upon completion.

The New Zealand Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care (Level 5) lays a strong foundation of theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of early childhood education, and equips students to become resourceful and reflective professionals.

ECE teachers are highly sought-after in New Zealand, as a shortage of qualified educators means the country is struggling to meet demand. With NZTC’s flexible study options and an extensive support system readily available, now is the perfect time to enrol in one of the college’s globally recognised teaching programs.

“Year after year NZTC has made decisions to support our early childhood communities with supportive scholarships to remove barriers of cost to qualification achievement. It is an honour once again in our 38th year commitment to the early childhood education sector to do this again through substantial teaching scholarships. We share these with NZTC Heart, in the hope that they will provide support for those looking to inspire, lead and educate future generations,” said NZTC Chief Executive Selena Fox.
