A great achievement for Paul

This week we celebrated Paul Tearii as he received his certificates after completing his Mechanical Building Services apprenticeship.

Paul faced a few challenges along the way, but through hard work, determination, and the support of the people around him, he kept moving forward and succeeded in the end.

A big part of that support came from his host company, Tubman Heating Ltd, along with the ATNZ Account Managers who worked with Paul throughout his apprenticeship.

No two apprenticeship journeys are exactly the same. Sometimes setbacks, changes, or difficult periods come up, and that’s where the right support can make all the difference.

Paul now has a recognised trade qualification behind him and a strong foundation for what comes next for him and his family.

Congratulations, Paul. A fantastic achievement and very well deserved.
And thank you to the team at Tubman Heating Ltd and everyone who supported Paul along the way.

A great achievement for Daniel Driskel

Daniel completed his Mechanical Building Services apprenticeship in September, and the team at Hawke’s Bay Refrigeration marked the occasion with a BBQ breakfast, a few speeches, and a certificate presentation.

Daniel is a highly respected and knowledgeable member of the HBR team, with strong technical skills and the confidence to speak up when he has a view.

Throughout his apprenticeship, he took real ownership of his training, managed much of his coursework independently and wasn’t afraid to question an assessment when he felt there was a valid technical point to raise.

That willingness to think things through, challenge respectfully and back up his position is a real strength.

Congratulations, Dan, on a very well-earned result, and a great reflection of the support around you at Hawke’s Bay Refrigeration.

Back-to-back Bill Buckley Engineering Scholarship winners for ATNZ apprentices!

Huge congratulations to Dylan Taylor, an ATNZ Mechanical Engineering apprentice at New Zealand Pharmaceuticals (NZP), on being awarded the Bill Buckley Engineering Scholarship from the Maintenance Engineering Society of New Zealand.

Dylan was selected from applicants across New Zealand, recognising his commitment, work ethic, and engineering capability, which he continues to develop through his apprenticeship.

His achievement follows Josiah Barlow of We Can Precision Engineering, who received the scholarship last year, making it two years running that an ATNZ apprentice has earned the award.

The scholarship is named after MESNZ patron Bill Buckley, founder of Buckley Systems, another business whose apprentices ATNZ is proud to train.

Congratulations, Dylan. A fantastic achievement and well-deserved recognition of the work you’re putting into your engineering career.

Thanks also to New Zealand Pharmaceuticals, MESNZ, Bill Buckley and Kaeser Compressors for supporting the development of engineering talent in New Zealand.

A few visitors discovered just how tricky welding can be at the ATNZ stand at this year’s MESNZ Conference.

Our simulated welding equipment proved popular, giving people the chance to test their skills and have a bit of fun along the way.

More importantly, the conference gave us the opportunity to connect with people working across maintenance and engineering and hear directly about the challenges, skills and capability their businesses need.

Events like MESNZ are an important part of keeping training connected to industry and making sure the next generation of skilled people is ready for the work ahead.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by the stand and had a go.

The jobs you do most often can be the easiest to underestimate.

Cutting is part of everyday work across engineering, manufacturing and HVAC&R – but familiarity doesn’t remove the risk.

The cut starts before the tool does.

Before you switch on a grinder, saw or other cutting tool, take a moment to check:

✅ Are you using the right tool and cutting attachment?
✅ Is the equipment in safe condition?
✅ Is the workpiece properly secured?
✅ Is the area around you clear?
✅ Can you stay in control throughout the job?

Our latest ATNZ Toolbox Talk covers Safe Cutting & Tool Handling, including safe setup, housekeeping, safe tool handling, and isolating equipment before changing, clearing, or adjusting it.

And remember:

Switched off isn’t the same as isolated.

One qualification completed. Another already underway.

Blake Manning joined ATNZ after starting his training with another employer and provider, and then went on to complete his General Engineering Apprenticeship with Winiata and Anderson Sheetmetals in Levin.

Now he’s building on that achievement.

Blake has returned to ATNZ and is working towards the New Zealand Certificate in Engineering Fabrication - Light Fabrication, continuing his development with the team at Winiata and Anderson.

It’s a great example of how trade skills can keep growing over time, one qualification building the foundation for the next.

Congratulations, Blake, and thanks to Winiata and Anderson Sheetmetals for continuing to support his development.

Before Cooper Hughes had even finished his apprenticeship, Hunter Filling Systems trusted him to travel to Australia to help assemble and commission machinery.

That’s a pretty good indication of how far he had come.

Cooper has now completed his Level 4 Mechanical Engineering – Fitting & Machining apprenticeship with Hunter Filling Systems in the Waikato and is officially trade qualified.

It wasn’t always a straightforward path. There was a period when Cooper needed some extra support to regain his motivation and get back on track with his studies.

Regular ATNZ visits, quick assessment turnaround and weekly study groups helped him re-engage, while his Account Managers Daniel Hughes and Adrian Gozdz provided plenty of coaching and encouragement along the way.

But Cooper still had to do the work, and he kept at it.

As his skills and confidence developed, Hunter Filling Systems gave him the opportunity to head across the Tasman and help assemble and commission machinery in Australia while he was still completing his apprenticeship.

Now he can add another milestone: trade qualified in Fitting & Machining.

Congratulations, Cooper. A thoroughly deserved achievement.

And a big acknowledgement to the team at Hunter Filling Systems for backing Cooper and giving him opportunities to develop throughout his apprenticeship.

Not every apprenticeship follows a straight line. What matters is continuing to move towards the goal.

Well done, Cooper.

Sometimes the right support at the right time is exactly what an apprentice needs to keep moving forward.

Recently, ATNZ enrolled a group of apprentices in Skills Boost, a six-week programme delivered by Edvance that provides additional literacy and numeracy support.

The sessions focused on practical areas that apprentices use throughout their training and at work, including workplace maths, understanding assessment requirements, interpreting written information and communication.

Our Account Managers identified learners who could benefit from some additional support and enrolled them in the programme.

But the biggest commitment came from the apprentices themselves.

After a day at work, they logged on for Monday evening sessions over six weeks, putting extra time into their own learning and development. Some attended every session.

That commitment deserves recognition.

A big thank you to Edvance for delivering Skills Boost, and well done to every apprentice who took part.

Because learner success isn’t about giving everyone the same support. It’s about recognising what each person needs to keep progressing.
