Ako Aotearoa Sector Survey

We’re inviting people from across and around tertiary education in Aotearoa New Zealand to share their insights in a sector-wide consultation focused on three key themes: teaching excellence, thought leadership, and sector collaboration.

This work began in April, and we are committed to its completion and release later this year in the form of a published report. Sharing the insights we gather will be of value to you, your organisation and wider government agencies as the tertiary sector looks to create a more connected and successful future.

We value your perspective

As someone who works in the sector, your experience and insights will help build a more complete picture of how the sector needs to adapt in the future.

What supports great teaching? What kind of leadership does the sector need? And how can we work better together across institutions? Your experiences will help address these questions.

The survey takes around 10-15 minutes, and your responses will help shape a vision for tertiary education in Aotearoa New Zealand.


Start the survey

Please complete the survey by 5pm, Friday 18 July, and feel free to pass it on to others in your networks who might wish to contribute.

Ngā mihi nui,
