WHK Business Growth's Message Wall

IMPORTANT Changes to the Enterprise Training Programme

After 30 June 2010 business training workshops and coaching will NO LONGER be fully funded by New Zealand Trade and Enterprise.

A review was carried out by the Ministry of Economic Development and New Zealand Trade & Enterprise that led to these proposed changes.

Now a proposal sits before Minister Gerry Brownlee to introduce a new scheme that will offer eligible businesses a partial subsidy to access business training and capability services provided by the private sector. Details of the scheme are to be made available over the coming months. We will endeavour to keep you updated on the progress of these developments.

Please share your thoughts and comments on the upcoming changes by heading to our website www.whkbusinessgrowth.com

WHK Business Growth will continue working with SMEs, helping them grow. More information on our affordable range of support services will be available shortly.
