Pivot Point Education New Zealand

Apprentices and students learn the why, not just the how, setting them up to move onto the floor earlier and work confidently with clients, knowing they have the skills to match the expectations of their clients. 

Pivot Point learning resources are mapped to the New Zealand unit standards and can be customised to meet your delivery programme. 

The Pivot Point resource suite includes:

• videos for all practical exercises

A rich suite of resources allows learners to learn the way that suits them, while maintaining a consistent methodology that builds confidence throughout.

Consistent and thorough resources mean the aspiring hairdressers, both apprentices, work-based trainees and full-time students remain engaged and progress on the floor more quickly, with the confidence that comes from knowing the ‘why’ not just the ‘how’.
