Ag Challenge Ltd – trading as AGC Training For Industry from 2021- is a registered New Zealand Qualification Authority (NZQA) accredited training provider, offering real world experience with practical hands-on training in the fields of Agriculture, Animal Care and Technology, and Carpentry. The practical experience is gained on two dairy farms milking 1200 cows, a building site where students build a complete relocatable classroom.
Ag Challenge was born over 30 years ago out of a relationship between Stephen Gudsell, property owner, with the then Department of Social Welfare to take small groups of clients and teach them basic dairying skills on his farm in Okoia, Wanganui East. Many of the clients were later able to find jobs in the dairy industry.
This led to the formation of Ag Challenge Limited and accreditation with NZQA in 1996. This allowed the formalisation of the education and training programmes and coincided with a strong demand from industry sectors for employees with formal qualifications in their field. AGC Training currently offers training from Level 3 to Level 5 in Agriculture, Animal Care and Carpentry.
Are you working in the building industry and want your carpentry trade qualification? This flexible course will allow you to become a qualified carpenter while working in the construction industry under the supervision of your employer, who is willing to support you as an apprentice.
This class gives people the opportunity to develop skills and friendships as they work on their own project. Help with any problems is given by the tutor. Woodturning is also available. No recycled timber to be used.
Participants will need to be able to carry their project a short distance from their car into the workshop and then back again to be stored at home between lessons. Participants should wear comfortable clothes, closed toe shoes and jewellery that will not get caught in any machinery.
Students use the same construction/ Joinery workshops that our pre-trade students work in so they are able to see first-hand the types of projects that are carried out by the full-time students.
Our Carpentry programmes will provide you with the hands-on skills you need to start your career as a builder. With our workshop facilities, experienced teachers, industry connections and apprenticeship scheme, you’ll hit the ground running.
