Important changes to Opportunity Hamilton’s business training.

Opportunity Hamilton would like to advise you that from 30 June 2010, business training workshops and coaching, currently offered under the Enterprise Training Programme will no longer be fully funded by New Zealand Trade & Enterprise.

A review was carried out by the Ministry of Economic Development and New Zealand Trade & Enterprise that has led to this decision.

The Government is currently developing a new scheme which will offer eligible businesses a partial subsidy to access business training and capability services. Details of the new scheme will be made available over the coming weeks. Opportunity Hamilton intends to offer this new scheme and we will keep you updated on progress as we are in turn advised by MED/NZTE.

Meanwhile, in order to satisfy the ongoing high demand for business training in Hamilton and the wider region, Opportunity Hamilton is delighted to announce we will be launching in June 2010 our own Aim for Success consulting  services and business training workshops (1 hour duration). These are available to anyone in business, or planning to go into business at a cost of $60.00 + GST per hour.

Aim for Success will cover the full range of business training needs (e.g. business start-up, sales, marketing, finance, customer service and IP protection) and will be promoted on our website and in the local media. Please keep an eye out for this notification.
