Entry Requirements

• The minimum age for entry into the Year One of the Diploma is 18 on the day that the course begins. There is no upper age limit. Application for a special exemption from the age restriction should be addressed to the Praxis National Office neo@praxis.org.nz 
   
• You are willing to participate in a course with a Christian kaupapa.
   
• We require all applicants to give permission to have their police record checked by Praxis. A criminal record does not automatically mean that your application will be turned down.
   
• On the application form, you will also be asked to supply us with the contact details of a person from your proposed agency, and one other reference person, with whom we can discuss your suitability for working with youth, and your ability to handle the academic requirements for the course.
   
• Unless you have a medical, or other special exemption, you will need your drivers licence (at least your learners) before you start the course.
