Skills Highway – Fully Funded Training to Build Better Business

Better business starts with people who have the skills and confidence to do their jobs well. That’s where Skills Highway, funded by the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC), comes in.

This programme provides fully funded, tailored workplace training to build essential literacy, numeracy, and communication skills — the everyday capabilities people need to work safely, accurately, and confidently.

What it helps your team do:

• Communicate clearly with customers, colleagues, and supervisors

• Understand health and safety instructions and workplace systems

• Follow production schedules, complete paperwork, and record information correctly

What it does for your business:

• Increases productivity

• Reduces mistakes, rework, and wasted time

• Improves quality, efficiency, and retention

• Builds confidence, engagement, and teamwork

Training is delivered on-site, over 25–80 hours, and is fully funded for eligible workforces — including teams with lower levels of reading, writing, or maths, or where many staff speak English as a second language.
