Marinette R. Barbero

Tēnā koe. Thank you for your enquiry and interest for the next intake of our Ka Hao i te Ao Digital Technology programme. Our aim with the programme is to help raise the household income of whānau, help Māori enterprises become more effective, and encourage collaboration, support, and inspiration among our participants. We are currently reviewing the results of our first cohort. Below is some initial information for you to consider. Our programme assistant, Marie, is cc'd into this message and will send you a link to our updated application form. Filling in the application will take around 30-40 minutes to complete as there is a special DISC assessment you will be required to undertake, which gives us a deeper understanding of you who are and assists us in forming the virtual teams on the programme. Once we have received your application, we will assess them and conduct 1-1 interviews to see if this programme is a good match. We are providing $4,000 scholarships to participants on this upcoming cohort, and so we want to make sure you are able to commit the time and effort required to complete the programme successfully. START DATES We are aiming to launch the next cohort on XX March with the Ground Zero module of the online programme. The programme would be completed with virtual graduation around XX June. These dates are subject to change. CONSIDERATIONS This programme is not for the faint hearted. It is intense and covers a lot of practical content which will likely stretch you considerably. You will be exposed to some of the top minds and experts who are succeeding in Digital Marketing and E-Commerce and you will be able to walk away with skills you can apply to your life, to your enterprises, and to other organisations. If you are still wanting to be part of the next intake, reply here and Marie will send you the online link to the application. I look forward to connecting with you online to better understand more about you and your aspirations in this space. If you wish to connect in advance of submitting an application, or to ask questions, feel free to text me on the number below. Ngā manaakitanga, Kaye-Maree Dunn PROGRAMME MANAGER KA HAO I TE ĀO PROGRAMME-
