Aimed at registered health professionals (including nurses), this programme has been developed in collaboration with Health NZ Te Whatu Ora, the Midwifery Council, the New Zealand College of Midwives, and midwifery leaders.

With Te Tiriti o Waitangi principles embedded throughout, this master’s degree offers an accelerated pathway to gain a midwifery qualification.
