Who are NZQA?

The New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) was established in 1990 to oversee the provision of quality assured qualifications and to coordinate national qualifications in New Zealand.

The Qualifications Authority deals with the provision and quality of qualifications. It works in partnership with all education providers and national groups representing education and training in industry and business.

NZQA is a Crown Entity established under the Education Act 1989. The Authority is appointed by the Minister of Education, and is accountable through the Minister to Parliament.

Castle Recruitments’ sister company, King’s Education is registered with the New Zealand Qualifications Authority and is accredited to offer programmes in healthcare and English language.
