ServiceIQ acknowledges that New Zealand has ratified the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. This Convention strives for disabled people to experience dignity, autonomy, participation, inclusion and accessibility, non-discrimination and equality, and respect for difference.

The United Nations Convention preamble notes that disabling experiences are the negative experiences of persons with impairment when impeded from full and effective participation in society on an equal basis with others.

ServiceIQ is committed to ensuring everyone has access to our qualifications and programmes.
