The Healthcare Academy of New Zealand was created to respond to one of the country’s greatest needs: more nurses, carers, and culturally competent health professionals.
Backed by Yoobee Colleges and UP Education, and supported by partnerships with iwi and health providers across the motu, Healthcare Academy of NZ exists to support learners from all walks of life to enter the healthcare workforce.
We believe everyone deserves the chance to pursue a meaningful career in health. And we’re here to help you get there.
Our students aren’t just passing tests — they’re preparing for the realities of working in healthcare in Aotearoa. With clinical placements, cultural frameworks like Te Whare Tapa Whā and Te Wheke, and personalised learning support, we build nurses and carers ready for today — and tomorrow.
