Course Description
New Zealand is actively recruiting skilled workers from around the world and its Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV), introduced in 2022, made the process faster and more employer driven than ever before. Whether your client is a nurse, an engineer, a chef, or a software developer, New Zealand has a clear and accessible pathway from job offer to residence. This course teaches you how the AEWV works, what both the employer and the worker need to do, and how a work visa converts into a residence pathway.
