About WILNZ
Work-Integrated Learning NZ (WILNZ, ex NZACE) is a non-profit organisation that promotes work-integrated learning to education providers, workplaces and government in New Zealand.
Our membership consists of staff from a wide range of organisations and institutions around New Zealand who facilitate student work experience in business, research institutes, and industry as part of students’ educational programmes.
We initiate, support and publish research in work-integrated learning and provide guidelines for institutions seeking to establish programmes. We publish the International Journal for Work-Integrated Learning and acknowledge the contributions from our global partners in this space.
Every year we host multiple webinars as well as a conference for work-integrated learning practitioners, providers and interested stakeholders to present on the latest research, current issues and new programmes.
