Wade Woolgar

Cyber Security Analyst, ContactSuite Limited Auckland

Wade Woolgar sought to upskill in the tech field. Knowing the demand and importance technology will have in the future, he enrolled in a Diploma in Networking (Level 6), followed by a Diploma in Applied Network and Cloud Technology (Level 7).

“In your personal life or even in your professional career, you will engage with technology one way or another. It has made life so much easier for humanity, and there will be a demand for it for years to come.”

Rising Up To His Fullest Self

Studying at NZSE gave Wade more than just the technical skills to improve his employability. He gained three things during his studies; confidence, a positive mindset, and an improvement in applying himself in his craft.

“NZSE is a foundational ground where you are allowed to make mistakes. Nobody gets left behind and that’s something I really enjoyed.”

Tutors Who Challenge Him

Wade gives a lot of credit to his tutors and the resources they provided him. He was able to meet industry professionals, and this gave him an idea of what to expect when he joined the workforce. His tutors were an open book, allowing him to ask about anything related to his studies, but they also pushed him and allowed him to challenge them in return.

“Not only do they teach you about what’s happening today, but they teach you a stepping stone of what is about to happen tomorrow.”

Wade now works as a cybersecurity analyst for ContactSuite Limited, an IT services company, where he can put his valuable in tech and life in general to use.
