University sued by students
Page A7 of todays Sunday Star Times...
..Former students together with a training organisation are taking action against Massey University for failing to provide courses of a promised standard to students who have paid vast sums of money..
..some students are saying that they won't tell prospective employers where they got their qualifications because of Masseys bad reputation in the industry...
...Oh dear oh dear oh dear..
..they say only about one quarter of an iceburg is visible above the waterline!!

Gaining your qualification from Massey University School of Aviation will indicate to employers that you are highly motivated, academically successful and focused on achievement in a demanding environment

Massey have completely lost the plot (well, the School of Aviation has, under their newly-imported head).
You have to wonder if the university has any intention of continuing with the program. Budgets are being slashed, necessary expenditure is not being made, and of course the students suffer. They are quite right to not want to reveal where they were trained.
The school mentioned in the article has been appallingly treated to say the least. Good luck to them, and the students, with their legal action.

How hard is it to provide a ground course for rotor heads anyway.? Surely just the mandatory pilot subjects with a bit of chopper POF and Tech? Some airy fairy human factors BS and u have a degree. Whats the problem? Ive heard massey fixed wing course are also quite interesting too.
