Hon POTO WILLIAMS: Te Arawa Lakes Trust have noted the growth of individuals through Jobs for Nature experience, such as gaining qualifications, and that this is a wider benefit for the growth of their community. Staff have been trained to be skilled in other employment to deliver further conservation projects. This includes undertaking pest animal control, working as maritime compliance officers, and training to be scientific divers. Staff development and training in this field has made them readily employable to environmental organisations. Staff have obtained qualifications such as the certificate in controlled substance handling, registered chemical applicators, skipper certificates, and biosecurity compliance officer training.
