INTERNSHIP

PROGRAMME

Over time, the programme will produce a powerful, national network of Māori and Pasifika business leaders who excel in their careers, who demonstrate deep-seated cultural intelligence, and who are strongly connected to their cultures and their communities.

A TupuToa internship will—

• equip you to succeed in the corporate sector and provide you with a range of tools and skills to enable you to perform well during your internship;
   

• teach you to embrace your culture and to enjoy the benefits and advantages it gives you in the world of work;
   

• provide you with training and development to prepare you for wider leadership responsibilities in your family and community settings; and
   

• create an environment of sustained support to enable you to fulfil your career aspirations and to become a leader in business and the community.

To be eligible to become a TupuToa intern, you must be—

• of Māori or Pasifika descent;
   

• studying full-time at university;
   

• available to work full time over the summer university break, and
   

• interested in pursuing a career in the corporate sector or the professions.

​
