Tai Poutini Polytechnic is working with NZ’s leading provider of distance and online learning, Open Polytechnic, to expand education options for West Coast learners.

By collaborating, we’re offering learners the best of both worlds: you can study the programmes you want through Open Polytechnic, while still having access to campus facilities and student support services at Tai Poutini Polytechnic campuses.

More study choice and flexibility, with all the benefits of campus-based learning. It doesn’t get any better than that!

When you enrol in Open Polytechnic’s online courses, you’ll also now have access to face-to-face student support at Tai Poutini Polytechnic including:

• use of computers and printers
• library
• our onsite café
• BYOD free wifi
• connections with other learners
• learning support in study skills, literacy and numeracy
• health and wellbeing support
• Māori and Pasifika support
