Tahatū Career Navigator empowers young New Zealanders to navigate their future.

Following its successful introduction in secondary schools earlier this year, the Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) has launched a nationwide campaign to support the public release of Tahatū Career Navigator.

Building on the momentum of the school focused rollout, this next phase expands reach of Tahatū to all young New Zealanders aged 13–25, connecting with young people through channels and messages that resonate with them, in relatable, engaging ways that spark curiosity and build confidence in planning their futures.
