This Week Only: eLearning Special – NZPPA Night School Development Streams – Save $295 + NZPPA Bootcamp!

What is NZPPA Night School?

We call it “night school,” but you can access and complete the course in your own time. The programme is designed to be flexible, giving you up to three months to finish (you may complete it sooner if you wish).

There are three development streams: Payroll Technician, Payroll Practitioner, and Payroll Specialist (outlined below).

Each stream aligns with NZPPA Certification. Completing a stream covers all the learning outcomes needed to undertake certification at that level.
