To get the most out of the KiwiQuals website, complete as many search fields as you can.

There are three ways of searching for qualifications on this website. The pop-up boxes provide a brief explanation of key terms used - these words are explained more fully under About Register.

There may be several different words that describe the qualification you are looking for, so if you're not finding something you'd expect, try your search again with another keyword. The "keyword" search will look for these words in a qualification's:

Title
subject classification
outcome statement
content field.

The search facility will only search on whole words, for example, typing in a keyword of 'bus' will not bring up results with the word 'business'.

Quick Search

Enter a title or keyword into the text box
