Why choose us?

The Kershaw legacy
Descendants of Tainui, Takitimu, Aotea and Horouta Waka Tom and Lil Kershaw founded Kershaw Training Enterprises in 1988.
32 years on, we continue to be a training provider that is both family-owned and operated.
We live to help students of all ages gain the skills they need to achieve their career goals.
Life doesn’t always go to plan, but founder Lillian Kershaw long understood the power of a plan B and today, her team of tutors continue that hopeful belief in second chances.
