WHY TOI OHOMAI
IS A GREAT CHOICE
Rotorua and Tauranga are part of the Bay of Plenty region and are safe, friendly
places to live, study, and play. The cost of living is lower here than in bigger cities like
Wellington and Auckland. Economic and population growth has led to a noticeable
increase in construction and engineering opportunities. The Bay of Plenty region is
also renowned for its horticulture, with large kiwifruit orchards spanning the area which
provide ample opportunities for seasonal work.

Graduate Profile
Philip Lopez had a top-level role as a dean at a university in the
Philippines when he decided to embark on a new life, studying
the Postgraduate Diploma in Applied Professional Studies
(Mentoring and Leadership) at Toi Ohomai.
Armed with this new qualification and his background
in anatomic and clinical pathology, Philip now works at
Toi Ohomai teaching degree-level nursing papers.
‘I feel my purpose is to teach. I love being with my students.
It gives me great satisfaction to know I have shared a significant
part of myself with my students every time our lecture, laboratory,
or tutorial session ends.”
“I find working with my colleagues exciting too! Our relationship spans more than just being workmates
– we have established a family over here.”
Philip says the Toi Ohomai course helped him to take command of his life, giving him the confidence
to make crucial decisions.
“It has forced me to appreciate that I have the power to change my life for the better. Moreover,
this course has provided me with a lot of friends that actually helped me find this job and acted as
mentors for me to achieve success.”

                                     Having grown up in China, with English as a second language, Jasmine Li was initially
                                     worried that she might not graduate from her Bachelor of Applied Management
                                     programme. But with support and guidance from each of her Toi Ohomai tutors,
                                     Jasmine was able to overcome her challenges and succeed.

                                     “The best part was the tutors. Sometimes I wouldn’t know how to do the assignments
                                     so I’d ask their advice. They were always so nice and helpful and I never felt like I was
                                     annoying them.”

                                     After graduating, Jasmine began working as a marketing specialist at Urban Print,
                                     where she has continued to prosper as the business expands.
