The BCITO is the Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation. It is the organisation appointed by the Government to develop and implement industry qualifications for the building and construction sector.

There are apprenticeships in almost every different area of the building and construction industry. Which apprenticeship is right for you will depend on your interests, your experience and the opportunities in your area.

Apprenticeships are “competency based”. It’s all about demonstrating you have the ability (both in terms of knowledge and skill) to complete a task – you are seen to be competent and can work towards becoming qualified. It means that apprenticeships take no more or no less time than it takes for you to show that you can demonstrate your skill.

When you train through the BCITO hard work pays off, you learn skills that don't just build doors-they open them! While you're working towards gaining a National Certificate you'll be building your knowledge and getting valuable hands on work experience. You even get paid while you're learning. It's a great way to build your career!

If an apprenticeship in the building and construction industry sounds like the right choice for you check out the different qualifications on www.bcito.org.nz or for more information contact your local BCITO office on 0800 422 486.

Currently there are nine apprentices working for C.A. Robinson Builders Ltd who are all at various stages of their apprenticeship. Steve Tuck – Waikato Representative for the BCITO, works closely with all our apprentices to ensure they are meeting current standards and expectations.
