Te Pōkaitahi Reo programmes may compromise either onsite, online, or blended delivery modes including a range of learning activities.

Depending on delivery mode, learning activities may include lectures (classes), tutorials, wānanga, noho/noho marae, workshops, guest speakers, field trips, practical learning experiences, online learning and self-directed learning.

The level 2, Te Pōkaitahi Reo (Rumaki, Reo Rua) (Te Kaupae 2) programme will be offered over two duration options. The 20-week option will be delivered over a single semester.

The 40-week option, 'Paewhitia', was originally designed to support the unique needs of corporate teams, government departments, and organisational groups seeking professional development opportunities. We understand that standard semester schedules (typically 20 weeks) may not suit busy professionals or whānau balancing work or home commitments, so Paewhitia is now offered as an option

The flexible Paewhitia delivery option is ideal for groups or individuals who prefer a slower pace, extended learning time, and the ability to integrate language development into their workplace culture or home.

Key Features of the 40-Week, Paewhitia Option:
  • Tailored for Groups: Available for teams or departments wanting to learn together.
  • Extended Duration: Spread over 40 weeks to allow deeper engagement and better retention.
  • Flexible Delivery: Options for online (national), or blended learning (Whakatāne only)
  • Cultural Enrichment: Strengthen your understanding of te ao Māori and enhance bicultural capability.
  • Professional Relevance: Aligns with workplace goals, diversity strategies, and commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi


Whether you're a business, school, health provider, government agency, or busy individual, this programme offers a meaningful way to build te reo Māori capability across your organisation or home — at a pace that works for you.
