With the New Zealand marine industry now worth $1.6 billion (having grown by an incredible 6% in the last year alone) and expected to double in size by 2020, a key priority is to attract even more young people into BITO apprenticeships. “Our exports alone are predicted to grow at a quite astonishing rate of 8.4% per annum - and to comprise some 60% of the industry’s total output by 2020,” says Marine Industry Association executive director, Peter Busfi eld. This means we defi nitely need to train more boatbuilders, marine engineers, spar makers and the like to cater for this growth. “Because BITO does such a spectacular job in creating highly qualifi ed, well trained young men and women, once they graduate, these trainees can literally walk into any boatbuilding or marine busi- ness anywhere in the world and get a job - just on the strength of their New Zealand marine industry 016TC019-07 training. “It’s a great future with enormous satisfaction.
