PEGASUS POST<br />

CWEA - More<br />

than just a course!<br />

The WEA opposite the Christchurch Art<br />

Gallery on Gloucester St, has been offering<br />

affordable adult education for over <strong>10</strong>0<br />

years. A recent survey of participants and<br />

tutors shows that it is about more than just<br />

the courses it runs. Kazuko who teaches<br />

Japanese arts and culture says “It’s my home<br />

away from home, a home of learning”. The<br />

homely feel and warm welcome you get<br />

on stepping through the door indicate an<br />

inclusive, caring culture - values which<br />

have long been held high at the WEA. With<br />

discussion clubs like “The Thinkers Group”,<br />

courses on Women’s Suffrage and Armchair<br />

travel as well as regular speaker slots called<br />

“The Social Issues Soap Box”, a community<br />

of learners are being encouraged to explore,<br />

analyze and expand their horizons.<br />

As our emerging city seeks to position<br />

itself as progressive and forward thinking it<br />

is clear that this centrally located education<br />

hub has a key role to play: it gives us space<br />

to reflect on, learn about and challenge the<br />

world we see around us - whilst nurturing<br />

community both in and outside the<br />

classroom.<br />

NZ Massage<br />

Therapy Diplomas<br />

by Distance Learning<br />

The New Zealand College of Chinese<br />

Medicine now offers both the NZ Diploma<br />

in Wellness and Relaxation Massage Level 5<br />

and the NZ Diploma in Remedial Massage<br />

Level 6 on line, becoming the first private<br />

training provider in New Zealand to offer<br />

these qualifications nationally by Blended<br />

Learning (Distance Learning and Block<br />

courses). This exciting development<br />

provides learners with choice and flexibility<br />

about how and when they study and<br />

enables much greater access to these NZQA<br />

approved massage qualifications.<br />

Both Diplomas are one-year full time<br />

courses. Students may study part time<br />

if they wish. The course design of both<br />

qualifications comprises distance on line<br />

learning modules in theory and on campus<br />

practical block modules offered either at the<br />

College’s Auckland campus or regionally<br />

where numbers of enrolments justify this.<br />

These block courses ensure students meet<br />

the supervised practical requirements<br />

to register as a<br />

massage therapist<br />

with Massage New<br />

Zealand.<br />

The programmes<br />

are taught by very<br />
