Here's a quick weekly update from ITP CEO Paul Matthews.

We're super excited to be kicking off the fully refreshed ITP Mentoring programme over the next couple of weeks, as we stage invitations to potential mentees. The programme is fun, safe, rewarding and completely free for ITP members.

And if you're still keen on being a mentor, it's not too late - just sign up and we'll run through an induction with you to make sure you're well supported.

Some great events coming up over the next couple of weeks too! Next Thursday we have an awesome webinar panel featuring Siân Simpson of Kiwi Landing Pad fame, David Downs from NZTE and one other guest talking about taking kiwi tech to the world post-Covid. Plus the Trade Me covid story in Wellington, Tech Chat Tuesday next week and more!

And don't forget to get your ITP gear, with a great range of ITP-branded clothing for work and play - now available at the ITP members' online store.

Here's a quick weekly update from ITP CEO Paul Matthews.

A bit of a frustrating time in relation to the wider Review of Vocational Education (RoVE) this week, with officials continuing to ignore the very industries the whole reform package is intended to serve. I spoke about it on RNZ's Technology show this week and there's more coming next week.

Also, don't forget to sign up as a Mentor in ITP's newly designed and very awesome Mentoring Programme. We've had a really strong response with almost 100 mentors already signed up.

Plus get your ITP gear from our Gear Shop - high quality branded clothing to show your clients, colleagues and others that you're serious about professional practice.

Here's a quick weekly update from ITP CEO Paul Matthews.

Calling all potential mentors! It's taken a little longer than hoped to get our redesigned mentoring programme up and running but it's exciting to have launched the first phase, with a call for mentors this week. The programme is significantly streamlined now and we believe will form a core part of ITP membership going forward. We've called for mentors and would love you to get involved.

Also, ITP face-to-face networking events are back... Hooray! Plus we say a big welcome! to 5 new Corporate Partners this month, our Accreditations Board met this week to progress a bunch of accreditation activities, get your ITP gear now and don't forget our AGM is coming up in a couple of weeks.
