Access our online learning modules

Online learning modules

We’ve created a set of free online learning modules that regulators can access at any time, which teach the fundamentals of regulatory practice. They’re intended to give you a better understanding of the regulatory environment we have here in New Zealand. They provide practical tips and learnings, and walk you through the kind of real-life scenarios you could face in your everyday work in regulation. You can:  

  • access the learning modules in your own time, and at your own pace
  • pick and choose the modules that suit your work best
  • track your progress as you go.

We have six training modules available:

  1. Regulation in New Zealand
  2. Regulatory compliance activities
  3. Regulatory systems and stewardship
  4. Professional conduct
  5. Engaging as a regulator
  6. Communicating with Regulated Parties

Collaboration 

We host a range of Communities of Practice where regulators can connect with others working in regulation in New Zealand. We’ll be moving our Communities of Practice into RegRoom in early 2025 – until then you’ll find details of our current Communities of Practice here on our website.
