About Tranzqual
Tranzqual is the Industry Training Organisation (ITO) responsible for setting world-class training standards for the commercial road transport, passenger services, warehousing and logistics, freight forwarding, ports and stevedoring industries.
What we do
We work with the truck, bus, courier, taxi, warehousing, logistics, ports and stevedoring industries to increase the skills and knowledge of their employees.
We ensure workers in our industries have the best opportunities to learn by setting training standards, developing training resources and supporting companies and trainees to achieve their training outcomes.
In addition to our training and qualification activities, Tranzqual has a role in presenting our industries as professional career path options for school leavers and mid-career changers.
More specifically we:
- develop world-class training standards and nationally recognised qualifications for our industries
- work with our industries to develop effective training resources and assessment materials
- work with course providers to deliver our qualifications
- work with assessors who assess trainees
- allocate subsidies for training and assessment
- help employers work out the best training options for their staff
- provide advice, assistance and expertise to create new training initiatives
- look to the future and identify our industries' skills and training needs
- market our industry sectors
- monitor the professionalism of Tranzqual's registered assessors and NZQA accredited training providers.
