Te Pūkenga is a New Zealand education administration organization based in Frankton Junction, Waikato. It is described as a mid-sized entity that has served as the national network encompassing the country's 25 polytechnics and industry training organisations. Te Pūkenga is being disestablished following the change in direction outlined in the December 2023 Letter of Expectations from the Tertiary Education and Skills Minister, which called for restoring decision-making to regional institutions. This shift signals a move away from centralized vocational education governance in New Zealand and reflects a broader realignment of post-secondary education.
