ASWEFA | Trainers & Admin Staff
Our Admin Team - The First Step in Workplace Safety
Our admin team plays a critical role in helping individuals and businesses find the right training solutions.
From the first enquiry to final certification, they ensure every client feels supported and informed. Whether someone is booking Forklift training, MEWP, D endorsements or Wheels, Tracks and Rollers training, our admin team makes the process simple and seamless.
Our Instructors - Building Skill, Confidence, and Safer Workplaces
Our instructors bring industry experience, technical knowledge and enthusiasm to every course they deliver.
Through hands-on forklift training, WTR endorsements, MEWP certification and Dangerous goods endorsements, they equip operators with more than just technical ability. They build confidence, awareness and the right safety mindset.
The impact of their work goes far beyond the classroom or warehouse floor. Every competent operator contributes to reducing workplace risk, preventing injuries and improving overall productivity.
The Power of Teamwork at ASWEFA
What truly makes ASWEFA special is the collaboration between our admin team and instructors.
Together, they create a seamless learning journey. From booking and preparation through to assessment and certification. This teamwork ensures our clients receive consistent, high-quality training that meets the highest safety and compliance standards.
From our ASWEFA Training Centre's to on-site training delivered across New Zealand, our team works every day to support safer workplaces.
More Than Just Employee Appreciation
Employee Appreciation Day reminds us that safe, confident machinery operation doesn't happen by chance. It happens because of experienced instructors, supportive admin staff and a culture that prioritises safety over shortcuts.
To our team, thank you. We are proud of the culture you help create and deeply grateful for the professionalism, passion and care you bring every day, making a real difference in workplaces across New Zealand.
