Why New Zealand?

BTI is located in Aotearoa New Zealand, a country that is world-famous for its friendly people, spectacular landscape and relaxed lifestyle. 

The New Zealand government has strong quality assurance systems to ensure high-quality education at all levels of the education system, both public and private. The New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) is an agency that ensures the qualifications offered by tertiary institutions like BTI are regarded in New Zealand and around the world as credible and robust.

Each day is a new adventure in New Zealand. Explore native forests, snow-capped mountains, white sandy beaches, picture-perfect lakes and stunning fjords – all without the crowds and queues you’ll find in most parts of the world.

There’s something for everyone in New Zealand, whether you enjoy high-adrenalin sports like bungy jumping, skydiving or jet boating, or prefer to get closer to nature by hiking or cycling. You’ll be able to experience our unique Māori culture and see the landscapes made famous by the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit film trilogies.
