MPTT trainees must prove they not only know their trade, but also have the personal and worksite skills to add value to your business. They work closely with independent advisors called āNavigatorsā, who understand what employers need and can connect you with the right employee to benefit your bottom line.
WORK READY
We only send our trainees to employers once theyāre ready to work. Our āWork Readiness Passportā ensures your employee ticks all the boxes, from solid trades skills to a good attitude.
EXTRA SUPPORT
We support our trainees even after theyāre employed, helping them do their best work at no cost to you. We offer new apprentices $1000 to start their toolkit and ongoing coaching to continually grow their skills.
DIVERSE WORKFORCE
Employing men and women from varied backgrounds means you benefit from their different perspectives and problem-solving approaches. Plus, youāll be helping create social change through a more diverse workforce.

Our Navigators will help you find an employee suited to the job. If you already employ an MPTT trainee, we can offer extra support to benefit your business. Get in touch to find out how we can help.
Working with industry
One of our goals at MPTT is to help fill the growing skills gap in the trades industry. Thatās why we work closely with employers to understand what they need in an employee, and partner with industry organisations to make sure our trainees have the skills to hit the ground running. That means your MPTT employee will be able to add value to your businessĀ from the start.
Getting behind the MPTT initiative also means youāll be supporting your community and embracing social change. NewĀ Zealandās population is now super diverse. Thatās especially true in Auckland, where nearly 50% of the population is MÄori, Pasifika or Asian. Having a team that reflects this shows you value your communityās diversity. It can also benefit your business, such as through access to a wider customer base.
