Founded in 1998 by Bruce Mazengarb, Vertical Horizonz began with a mission to improve the safety of working at heights for New Zealanders. Twenty-six years later, that commitment to enhancing the safety and skills of New Zealand’s workforce is as strong as ever. At VHNZ, we are dedicated to delivering world-class safety training that is engaging, practical, and learner-centred, with the success of our trainees at the core of everything we do.
With a team of over 150 staff and 120 highly experienced trainers, we offer more than 150 courses across 16 training centres nationwide. Our extensive industry knowledge ensures learners receive hands-on, practical training grounded in real-world experience.
Recognised by NZQA as a Category 1 provider (the highest rating) since 2013, we have consistently demonstrated excellence through three External Evaluations and Reviews (EERs), where NZQA expressed high confidence in both our educational performance and self-assessment.
As a proudly 100% New Zealand-owned and operated company, our purpose is to empower individuals, organisations, and industries to reach their full potential. We achieve this through providing real training that saves, and changes, lives.
