Ngā Taura Umanga (NTU) was established in 2006 to encourage, support, and advocate for the needs of tauira Māori studying any commerce paper—no, you don't have to be doing a BCOM to be a part of NTU :)
In the past, we've coordinated social and professional development kaupapa to support tauira during their time at Te Herenga Waka and prepare them for the workforce. We have attended Ngā Kaitatau Māori o Aotearoa (The National Māori Accountants Network), organised study wānanga, Te Reo Māori classes, CV building workshops, and our illustrious Tātai Hono event. Tātai Hono is a professional networking evening with lots of kai, inu, and inspirational kōrero that offers a space for tauira to connect with and listen to Māori professionals from various careers talk about their experiences of being Māori in business.
For the past couple of years, tauira engagement has been a challenge, and our association has been relatively dormant. Given the importance of all Māori associations at Te Herenga Waka and the rich history behind our associations, there is a desire for us to reignite the movement that is Ngā Taura Umanga, allowing us to continue advocating for tauira Māori studying commerce.
Stay tuned to our socials if you're keen to be a part of the new and improved NTU... More information on how to join our association or become a member of the komiti whakahaere will be coming out soon!!
