EOI open for fully funded Te Ao Māori education

Pinnacle is inviting Expressions of Interest (EOIs) from general practice teams to participate in a fully funded, facilitator-supported Te Ao Māori learning opportunity.

Places are limited to 50 participants, and EOIs are now open. 

The learning is designed to support participants to build confidence and deepen their understanding of te ao Māori in a practical and accessible way. It aligns with Pinnacle's commitment to improving equity and strengthening culturally responsive practice in line with Te Tiriti o Waitangi. 

What to expect

Participants will receive:

  • six self-paced online learning modules completed over 12 months 

  • four facilitated virtual wānanga to support learning, reflection and connection 

  • interactive learning activities to build confidence in pronunciation, cultural understanding and everyday practice 

  • a flexible programme suitable for learners of all experience levels. 

This learning opportunity is fully funded for Pinnacle practices. Practices interested in participating are encouraged to submit an EOI as soon as possible, as places are limited.
