As a pro athlete, BCITO Sports is the most rounded trades development programme ever offered to athletes in New Zealand. Weve worked hard to consider the needs and priorities of all those involved.
An online theory-based programme to give you a great stepping stone into an apprenticeship.
Work your way through BCITO resources to learn theory and gain formal recognition. Bite-sized chunks of learning are available for you to complete one at a time.
Reduce the time your apprenticeship will take when you retire from sport or become able to juggle both commitments.
The trades have always been a strong career option for those with a background in sport. The industry works well for people who are physically fit, personally disciplined, focused and used to working in a team environment.
A customised programme for athletes at all levels that enables you to build a long-term career in the trades.
