Hopper Living Te Ara Learners' Thrive

Hopper Living Te Ara Learners' Thrive

Hopper Living enrolled their team of leaders in our Te Ara Professional Development Programme a few months after the launch back in 2022.  Ruth and her team have been really motivated with the program and to date they have achieved just over 1700 CPD points between them.  They have also been actively attending our Masterclasses, that we have run over the last 18 months in their region. 

Ruth Scandrett, the Group's General Manager, has written the following endorsement about the programme: 

"As an independent group of villages, Hopper Living have found Te Ara to be an invaluable tool for the professional development of our leadership team.

"Both our experienced and new leaders are gaining a greater understanding of the industry, improving their leadership and expanding their capability, in their roles, which in turn enables us to deliver better leadership to our staff teams and better customer experience to our residents. The lessons are manageable in terms of the amount of time required to complete them and the resources are helpful, they provide a common understanding across our team of a range of aspects of village leadership. This enables us to have developed a strong continuous improvement focus across our business and is providing tangible results in outcomes across the group."

We appreciate the ongoing support for our Te Ara programme from members.
