Work-integrated learning (WIL) offers a win-win for everyone - students, business, iwi, community groups, schools and  other organisations. Local business and other organisations can utilise students' knowledge and resource to complete projects while helping to develop future talent. For students, WIL provides an opportunity to apply their theoretical knowledge in a practical setting.

WIL is a compulsory component of all University of Waikato’s undergraduate degrees. For more information, please visit the Work-integrated learning web page.

Community and not-for-profit organisations can access student knowledge and resource for volunteer roles through the Employability Plus Programme (EPP).

Volunteer activities are a great way for students to develop the skills required by employers while helping local community groups.

UK Teacher Recruiters

Depending on interest, it is highly likely competing UK Teacher recruitment firms will be present. Due to the volume of requests we are receiving from Teacher recruitment firms and the difficulty finding available space in education students' schedules, the Faculty of Education has placed a moratorium on employer seminars during the University's teaching and assessment periods.

Use MyCareer to organise a presentation to students or interviews on campus. A range of teaching room sizes and IT facilities are available. You can request a venue with the facilities you need, at the time that best suits you and your target audience.

To request a campus visit, log into MyCareer using your username and password. If you have not set up an account yet, please register. Once an account has been set up you will be able to create a password and request an Employer Visit.

There is no charge to book a teaching room on campus.

If you'd like to verify with the University a particular academic record belonging to one of our graduates, contact our Assessment and Graduation Office.
