As the situation around COVID-19 continues to develop, all EIT graduation ceremonies in Hawke’s Bay, Tairāwhiti and Auckland have been cancelled.

“This decision was not an easy one to make, and we are sorry for any inconvenience and understand the disappointment of our graduands. We are disappointed too. However, we are strictly following the recommendations coming from the Ministry of Health, public health agencies and the government,” stresses EIT’s CEO Chris Collins.  

The health and wellbeing of EIT students and staff remains EIT’s top priority. And this is the most important phase to keep COVID-19 out of Hawke’s Bay.

Graduates who wish to have their qualification achievement recognised, are invited to attend next year’s ceremonies. EIT will post the qualification awards to all graduates along with a copy of the ceremony programme.
