Gateway programme
Gateway is an opportunity for students to give the trades a go. It’s a way of figuring out what they want to do out of school, while they’re still in school.
BCITO Gateway
BCITO's Gateway programme involves both theory learning and practical application. Theory is done in the classroom and is reinforced with onsite work experience. We are here to help support you along the way.
Jess from Swish Decorating did Gateway through BCITO | Te Pūkenga and managed to get an apprenticeship as well.
