Our Website

Approved organisations may obtain a login to post notices on the site. To request a login (or if you have lost your login) contact the NZASE Administrator (nzase@xtra.co.nz).

Organisations that wish to develop their own pages on the website should send their proposal to the website manager, Robert Shaw (robert.shaw@openpolytechnic.ac.nz) setting out precisely what they request and the budget they have for the work. Once the initial establishment work is completed the organisation is expected to maintain and develop their own pages. There is no ongoing charge.

The following organisations manage their own sections of the website:

NZAPSE, ESSE, STANZ, Ethics
