COVID-19 Update For Our Community

With New Zealand at COVID-19 Alert Level 4, we understand that these are unprecedented and challenging times for everyone. However, it’s incredibly important that we all follow the Level 4 plan because staying at home will help to stop the spread of the virus and save lives.

As we adjust to all these changes, we’d like to share the following with you:

eCampus NZ has consistently focused on delivering quality online learning options and are fully prepared to continue operating as usual during the COVID-19 worldwide outbreak and Alert Level 4.

Business as usual

The positive news for our learners is that our courses are totally on-line and will continue as planned.

Our systems and processes have been designed to allow our employees to work remotely reflecting the ‘online’ nature of our business. In fact, many eCampus NZ staff members already choose to work from home.

As a result, we do not foresee any impact on the delivery and quality of our courses and the support services we offer. Our learners can be confident that they can continue their learning journeys with us uninterrupted. Your course end dates and assessment dates will remain as stated in your course portal.

Enrolments are still open

Through our online campus you can study anywhere, anytime. With our flexible online course options including diplomas, certificates and short courses, you can continue learning while in lockdown.

If you want to update your skills, further your career, improve your CV or master a new subject, you can still make it happen in 2020 at eCampus NZ!

Support our essential services people

To those working in essential services such as healthcare, supermarkets, and freight/courier services, we say a special thank you. We know you are working tirelessly to save lives and to keep the country going. Thank you to each and every person, for doing your bit.

Information for learners

Obviously, some of you have had a change of circumstances and may be struggling to fit in study at this time. Others of you may be working extra hours because your job is extra busy or you work in essential services.

We encourage you to:

Contact your Facilitator and Student Advisor. They can work with you to support your learning and help you structure study to work around your life-whatever that looks like now.
