Cultural Competency Training Auckland @ Auckland Transport - Afternoon Session
Event description
TupuToa Cultural Competency Session
To help prepare you and your organisation for our TupuToa interns during their 12 week summer internship programme, we have our exclusive TupuToa Cultural Competency workshops ready for your active engagement and participation. These introductory kanohi ki te kanohi (face to face) sessions are an essential part of your preparation as our TupuToa intern managers and leaders.
What topics we will be covered?
- An introduction to understanding Te Ao Māori and Pacific cultural values and world views;
- How to effectively engage, connect and participate within Te Aō Māori and Pacific cultures.
- The TupuToa journey and our cultural impact to date.
- Our expectations from you as manager, mentors and buddies to our interns
- Tips and advice when working with our interns from a cultural perspective.
Who should attend these sessions?
The aim of our introductory workshops is to provide a beginners guide for managers directly supporting our TupuToa interns. They are the key to providing an exceptional internship experience. Secondly leaders who have not previously attended one of our cultural competency trainings in the past.
How many staff can attend from my organisation?
Due to venue capacity and to ensure a fair distribution and participation across our entire partner movement, we have limited attendance of each organisation to a ratio of 2 staff per intern. Eg if you are taking 1 intern you can register up to 2 staff members (total) across any of the CCT sessions available. If you are unsure of how many staff are eligible, please get in contact with your TupuToa Relationship Manager, Navigator or reply to this email.
What if more staff from my organisation would like to attend these sessions?
We have a growing waitlist of partners who have expressed their interest to receive a customised CCT session for their SLT or organisation at an additional fee. We are open to receiving EOI and add you to our waitlist. However as these are additional training requests, we are unable to confirm delivery date during our summer 2022 cohort.
Is there pre-work involved?
