General Information

WELCOME FROM THE MAYOR OF CHRISTCHURCH LIANNE DALZIEL AND
MAYOR OF SELWYN DISTRICT SAM BROUGHTON

We would like to extend our warm welcome to the City of Christchurch and the
Selwyn district. International students and the international education sector are an
important part of our region, now and into the future. We are committed to ensuring
we offer students the very best opportunities to live, study and play. We want to
ensure that international students who relocate here, often a long way from home,
are warmly welcomed and supported while they study. They are a valued part of our
community for they bring new energy, ideas and talent.

Christchurch was New Zealand’s oldest city, but is quickly becoming the country’s
newest city. Our rebuild has been marked by creativity and innovation, and we are
committed to making Christchurch a 21st century city – a city of opportunity. The
township of Lincoln is just 20kms out of Christchurch city, located in the Selwyn
District. It has wonderful amenities and offers a great environment for study.

Christchurch has long been known as the gateway to the beautiful South Island, with
its famous lakes, vineyards, spectacular coastlines, world-class ski fields and
national parks. But the Canterbury region is a drawcard in itself, with so much to
offer and so much planned for the future.

Welcome once again and we both wish you all the best with your studies here.

New Zealand Christchurch

New Zealand is a small country, about the size of Great Britain or Japan. It is a
country of beautiful landscapes, mountain chains, volcanoes, beaches, lakes,
fiords and forests.
The first human settlers in New Zealand were the Maori people who arrived about
800 years ago. Settlers from Europe started arriving in New Zealand from about
1800 onwards. The European settlers gave special recognition to Maori as the
indigenous people of New Zealand and this understanding was enshrined in the
Treaty of Waitangi signed by Maori and European representatives in 1840.
The Treaty of Waitangi respects and protects Maori customs and culture. NZ
Institute of Business & Technology acknowledges and
honours the Treaty of Waitangi and respects the cultural needs and protocols of
the Maori people.

Christchurch City

Christchurch City

Christchurch is New Zealand’s second largest city and the gateway to the South Island. Bordered by hills and the Pacific
Ocean, it is situated on the edge of the Canterbury Plains that stretch to the Southern Alps. Located on the east coast of
the South Island Christchurch is a city of contrasts.
It is a place where its residents continue to enjoy a healthy, active lifestyle amidst a natural environment world-renowned
for its beauty. A growing cosmopolitan ambiance also adds a touch of excitement without overt flashiness.
There is nowhere else in the world where within two hours of an international airport you can ski at a world class alpine
resort, play golf, bungy jump, go rafting, mountain biking, hot-air ballooning, wind surfing, whale watching and visit world
class wineries and gardens.

Lincoln Township

Lincoln is a thriving town in the Selwyn District of Canterbury and is a social and predominately student town. Lincoln is
located within 30 minutes drive from Christchurch city centre and public transport via the Metro bus line is readily
available between Lincoln and Christchurch.

Student Testimonials

Jenny Wu (China)

After completed my English courses in Auckland, I decided to pursue a higher level education
that would help me understand more about my own business and open up more possibilities
in the future. I chose to enrol to NZIBT's Level 7 Business Diploma, not only because this
diploma is internationally recognised, but also because the courses and teaching staffs are
world class. The first day I arrived for orientation, I immediately knew that this was the
perfect place to bunker down and study, staying away from distractions. There is an
atmosphere of higher learning and tranquillity, and the students here are all super friendly.
When I'm in the class, I feel like I'm part of a team, working collaboratively with my co-schol-
ars to achieve our course goals. NZIBT also organise class activities and outings, such as
visiting a nearby ski field or watching movies at the local cinema. Christchurch is a lovely place
to live. The people here are friendly, the rent is cheap, the traffic isn't bad, all shops are
close-by and it's pretty easy to find a part-time job if you want to make a little extra pocket money. I am beyond satisfied with
everything so far, and I would definitely recommend NZIBT to anyone looking for a Business diploma.

Bikramjit Singh (India)

I came to Christchurch to study Diploma in business level 7 at NZIBT hosted on Lincoln Univer-
sity. I am getting world class education under the supervision of very supportive staff
members. They plays a vital role in polishing my intellectual skills and empowering me with
quality education. The first time I arrived here, I was surprised to see the beauty of nature
and the clear atmosphere. Everything is beautiful here that’s why they call it 100% pure New
Zealand. I really enjoy living and studying here. Lincoln University Campus has a good
multicultural environment and the place is well connected to the city centre via bus services.
I stay in city but easily travel to Lincoln 4 to 5 times a week as the transportation service is very
efficient, on-time and easy to use. I like the teaching methods used by our lecturers as they
are varied and flexible. Along with the quality time spent in class during lectures, the students
are encouraged to make the most of the excellent library services provided by Lincoln University which is very useful for
self-study and to do my own research. This is a whole new experience for me and it’s great.

Rajendra Deshar (Nepal)

Before my first class I was very nervous, but our heavily experienced teachers and student
support team created a friendly environment that made me feel like home. The college itself
is situated inside Lincoln University which is another feature for us to evolve with other
international students and their culture as well. When I look multi-cultural people around me
working and living in New Zealand I see it’s not difficult at all to settle around if you choose
the right subject and get qualified job. Your willingness and right attitude towards your skills
will make it possible to find out job of your desire and to sharpen your skill. At NZIBT we take
part in different curricular activities on weekly basis which helps us gaining social confidence
and make new friends. Now I feel so proud of being a NZIBT student I feel you should start
your future career from here as well. Christchurch has all that students would want, from
beautiful mountains to gorgeous sea shore and all the adventurous dreams that you have
seen. So make the right choice be the NZIBT graduates and see your career taking height with its international qualification.

Code of Practice

To ensure that international students are well informed, safe and properly cared for, the New Zealand Government has
developed a Code of Practice for Pastoral Care for International Students (The Code). NIZBT is a signatory to The Code,
which provides a framework for a high standard of service. Copies of The Code are available on request or can be down-
loaded from the NZQA webpage:
http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/studying-in-new-zealand/coming-to-study-in-new-zealand/international-student-care/.
Please refer to your Student Handbook, available via our website, for further information on the Code of Practice

Medical and Travel Insurance

All international students must have appropriate and current medical and travel insurance for the duration of their
planned period of study at NZIBT. NZIBT can offer insurance cover through Lincoln University’s preferred insurance plan
Studentsafe-University. It is recommended you take up this option as having the Studentsafe-University insurance cover
means that you will be eligible to use the Lincoln University Health Centre services on campus. We can organise the
Studentsafe-University insurance for you, please select this option when completing the Student Application Form and
we will add the cost of the insurance to your invoice. The benefits of Studentsafe-University include:

• Free Health Care from the Doctor, the Nurses, or the Counselling staff at the Student Health and Support
on-campus at Lincoln University for matters coming under the scope of the insurance;

• No application forms. The premium will be added to your invoice. Students are automatically insured for up
to 31 days prior to the programme start date (including insurance for travel from your home country). The
insurance premium is $590.00* (NZ dollars) for 12 months’ cover. *(Price is effective from 1 January 2016 and
insurance premiums are subject to occasional market fluctuations). If you would like to discuss Family Insurance
Policies (via Student-safe-University) please contact NZIBT at [email protected]. If you decide to organise your
own medical and travel insurance cover please send a copy of the insurance policy (in English) to info@n-
zibt.ac.nz no later than two weeks prior to commencing your study. Please be aware that you will not be eligible
for the health services offered at Lincoln University. Your policy must include the guidelines in the Code of
Practice for International Students
http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/studying-in-new-zealand/tertiary-education/

Accident Insurance

The Accident Compensation Corporation provides accident insurance for all New Zealand citizens, residents and tempo-
rary visitors to New Zealand, but you may still be liable for all other medical and related costs. Further information can
be viewed on the ACC website at www.acc.co.nz.

Eligibility for Health Services Lincoln Town

Most international students are not entitled to publicly
funded health services while in New Zealand. If you receive
medical treatment during your visit, you may be liable for the
full costs of that treatment. Full details on entitlements to
publicly funded health services are available through the
Ministry of Health and can be viewed on their website at
www.moh.govt.nz.

Immigration Requirements

Students must meet all the requirements of Immigration New
Zealand (INZ) to study in New Zealand. Full details of the
requirements can be viewed at www.immigration.govt.nz.

Withdrawals, Refunds, Student Fee Protection and Indemnification

Students who do not complete their enrolment at NZIBT must apply in writing to the Campus Manager of NZIBT within
the first ten (10) working days of the programme for a refund of their prepaid tuition fees (less a deduction of 25% of costs
already incurred). No refunds are provided after the tenth working day of the programme.
International students wishing to withdraw from a programme after ten working days must apply in writing to the Campus
Manager. There is no fee refund in this case. NZIBT is obliged to notify Immigration NZ of the withdrawal. If a visa renewal
is rejected by INZ after the programme has started there will be no refund.
If a visa is cancelled for breach of visa conditions at any time during the duration of the programme there will be no
refund.
The New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) requires that a Private Training Establishment (PTE) such as NZIBT has
an arrangement in place to protect student fees in the event of a programme closure. NZIBT’s Trust Account protects
students’ fees should a programme close. Programme closure events are outside of a student’s control, such as a cancella-
tion of a programme, the withdrawal of either accreditation or programme approval by NZQA.

Conditions of Refund

NZIBT’s refund policy and the availability of complaints and appeals processes does not remove the right of the student
to take action under New Zealand’s consumer affairs laws.
In the situation of a programme closure or cancellation, the student will receive a full refund. Refunds will be paid in New
Zealand dollars directly into a nominated overseas bank account or sent by cheque to your overseas address.
The refund will be paid within the four weeks after receiving your written claim or within two weeks of NZIBT being
unable to meet contract obligations with you.
NZIBT adheres to Section 236A of the Education Act 1989 and subsequent amendments. It has an approved Trust
Account for Student Fee protection and Student Fee Indemnification (the remaining portion of a student’s fee at any
point of the programme). The Trust Account is sufficient to cover the full amount of student fees and is administered by
The Public Trust.
