I got a job in my chosen field before I even finished my course at MIT. As an apprentice, my job involves working with fully qualified technicians to help install service air conditioning units in big industrial buildings.

High school wasn’t the right fit for me so I started the MIT Trades Academy and became full-time halfway through my final year of school.

Studying for a New Zealand Certificate in Refrigeration and Air Conditioning was a great choice. Our teachers created a good learning environment, classes were always interesting and we were well prepared for the workplace. I also made great friends during my studies.

Now I’m working in a job I love, with supportive colleagues and no two days are the same.”
