This is a foundation qualification and is intended for people looking to gain skills and

and local kōrero; demonstration/role-modelling of positive behaviours based on tikanga
Māori; meeting legal and ethical requirements in a professional manner, and the

This kaupapa highlights the importance of Māori cultural values in establishing, building
and maintaining quality relationships. It embraces those skills and strategies that relate
to communications and relationships, such as being able to understand different types of
relationships and stakeholders; knowing how to establish, maintain and enhance
relationships, both internally and externally; behaving in a manner that upholds the mana
of others, as well as one’s own; and understanding the significance of peopless roles and
responsibilities, and the contribution that each person makes.
Pūkengatanga
This kaupapa emphasises the importance of having the knowledge, skills and experience
to deliver services. It has also been applied broadly to incorporate the new knowledge
and skills required to effectively utilise modern technology and tools to protect, manage,
and enhance the mātauranga Māori systems of ngā tūpuna. It also encompasses
important aspects of legal and regulatory obligations and compliance.

This kaupapa acknowledges the responsibility for hosting manuhiri, the onus of the
guardianship of all people in one’s care, and the implications of doing this well (or
otherwise), especially in the context of providing kai. It demands excellence of the hosts
so as to uphold their mana, as well as mana of all guests, and the marae itself.
