Procurement Training and Development: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Public sector staff in New Zealand can access specialized training modules and professional development resources to help manage government contracts.

This scheme provides specialized training and professional development resources designed to help public sector employees manage government contracts and stay compliant with national frameworks.

Who it's for

This program is intended specifically for staff working within the public sector. It is designed for those involved in the procurement process who need to navigate the complexities of national compliance frameworks and the rules of sourcing.

What you get

Participants gain access to a range of training modules and professional development resources. These tools are specifically designed to support the end-to-end lifecycle of public sector contracts. By using these resources, staff can better manage vendor engagement and stay updated on the various national procurement portals and tax obligations relevant to their roles.

What it costs you

There is no direct monetary cost mentioned for accessing these resources. However, you will need to invest the necessary time to engage with the materials and complete the required training modules to gain the full benefit of the professional development offered.

The catch to know

While many resources are available to all public sector staff, there is a limitation regarding access levels. Some of the more advanced training modules are not open to everyone by default and require an agency-specific login to access. You should check with your specific department to see which modules are available under your current credentials.
