The Diploma in Organic Agri-Food Production is a full-time programme that provides foundational, transferable knowledge and experience with the theory and practice that make up contemporary organic agri-food production.
Study is undertaken in a context of tikaka together with the academic skills necessary for successful study in a university context. The programme includes Tikaka and Mahika Kai components delivered through two courses.
Graduates of the Diploma will be well placed to seek employment or to work entrepreneurially in urban and rural settings for organic agri-food production; in organic primary production or other sectors related to organics, particularly education and hospitality.
Graduates moving into organic primary production will tend to be involved in smaller-scale operations such as supplying farmers’ markets and restaurants. Graduates moving into or returning to the education sector will be able to embed the principles and practices of organics and sustainability in educational delivery. Hospitality sector graduates can involve themselves in smaller niche ventures such as food stalls, catering, cafes and farmers’ markets.
