Ultimate 2.0 follows on from Ultimate to further equip students with the necessary skills for basic employment or further study. Over 19 weeks, students can gain a New Zealand Certificate in Foundation Skills (Level 2) and credits towards NCEA Level 1 and 2.
This course is designed for students continuing on from Ultimate, or 16-19 year olds who already have NCEA Level 1 and are looking for a course that will provide them with valuable life skills, employment skills, and a look into the different career and study options they can work towards.

Following on from Ultimate, Ultimate 2.0 also includes further career and study tasters to help you decide what career you may want to work towards, and further learning you can take to get there. These tasters vary between campuses, but may include business technology skills, barista training, early childhood skills and much more!
Ultimate 2.0 includes a combination of classroom and practical learning. There is a focus on generic business and technology knowledge, as the skills you will gain are very useful for a wide variety of higher-level study and employment opportunities.
