Christchurch-based Kellianne<\/span> wanted a career working from home. Pre-COVID, she was working at a Japanese travel agency. When lockdown pushed her \u2013 like the rest of us \u2013 from the office chair to the comfort of her abode: she never looked back. After researching remote career options, and settling on the idea of studying Digital Marketing, she found herself on the NZIE homepage<\/a>. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201cFor me, the level of information that was readily available upfront intrigued me. I wanted to learn more.” <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

After a few phone calls with Recruitment Advisor Phil, Kellianne was signed up and ready to begin her Diploma in Digital Marketing<\/a>:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cI did look at other institutions that offered similar courses, but they didn\u2019t offer the scope that I was interested in. In particular, it was the social media as well as digital design as part of the same diploma that interested me.”<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Unfortunately for Kellianne, the start of her Diploma didn\u2019t mark the end of COVID. In August 2021, the announcement of level 4 lockdown happened in the middle of one of her classes.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\"I had so many great tutors. Steve was probably one of my favourites. I liked his no-nonsense attitude: he was very [direct]. Karl was supportive. Every question I had - even if it wasn\u2019t directly related to what we were supposed to be learning - he would take the time to answer it and offer over resources.\n\nI think a lot of people would say the same thing about Jen. I don\u2019t know if you\u2019ve seen the spreadsheet of resources that Jen gives her students but it\u2019s massive; there\u2019s a lot of useful information in it. Lasma has the patience of a saint.\"<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
