In order to better represent NZPFU members who are full time regional trainers we need to collate a database.

Can all NZPFU members who are full time regional trainers please contact: 

  • wellington@nzpfu.org.nz
  • Subject line: Regional trainer contact details. Attention Lyn
  • We need name, region and contact email address.

From this database we are hoping to group members and call for expressions of interest in each region for a “point of contact” to enable better representation and flow of information amongst groups. We are also hoping to provide information on the pathways for progressing different issues (ie. CEA matters, training matters, etc.) at different levels (training standards committee, union council etc.) through these “points of contact”.

We would also encourage all trainers to register on the secure NZPFU Members Zone and make use of the trainers forum. If the numbers increase we will look to appoint additional moderators to facilitate better communication.
