Ākonga Support & Wellbeing

We know that if each learner is well supported and feels a sense of belonging to their learning environment, they will thrive. So we’re here to support you every step of the way. Your safety and wellbeing are our priority — whether you're learning online, in the classroom, or in a workplace-based setting. JNPAT is committed to meeting all national and pastoral care requirements to ensure you have a safe, supportive, and high-quality student experience.

In this section you’ll find resources to support your mental health and wellbeing, connect with pastoral care services, and get help when you need it. If you ever have concerns, remember you’re not alone — you can talk with your family, whānau, or caregivers, and our team is always ready to listen and assist.

Ākonga Support & Cultural Navigator

Mā te rongo, ka mōhio; mā te mōhio; ka mārama. From listening comes knowledge, from knowledge comes understanding, from understanding comes wisdom, from wisdom comes well-being.

Nau mai haere mai, fakaalofa lahi atu!  

Welcome all ākonga - to JNP Aviation Training - a new and exciting tertiary provider of NZQA accredited aviation programmes and micro-credentials. 

We are lucky to have Aifai Esera as an essential part of our support team to help sustain and expand our learning environment for all students at JNP Aviation Training. Aifai is the perfect fit for this support role; not only has he worked in Aviation Ground Operations, he also has an acute understanding of the context that comes with being a Pacific Islander raised in New Zealand. Born and raised in the village of Tuana'i in Samoa, Aifai's role is to provide inclusiveness and continuity for Pacific and Māori ākonga - and all JNP Aviation Training students by being present and available.  

A good 'team environment' for all students at JNP Aviation Training is paramount to the well-being and success of our students. The Ākonga Support will always be around for a good kōrero!  

The whole JNPAT team looks forward to meeting with you and embarking on this amazing aviation journey at JNP Aviation Training.

Let the fun begin!
