MITO is returning to industry-ownership—with no changes to your training

From 1 January 2026, MITO will operate as MITO Limited, an organisation owned and led by industry. 

Your training continues exactly as it is today:

  • Same qualification
  • Same Training Advisor
  • Same support services
  • Same national coverage.

MITO Limited will take over responsibility for all training programmes and existing learners—there is no need for re-enrolment. 

Nothing changes for our learners or employers—except that industry will now be in the driver’s seat.

MITO has supported industry for over 50 years. Industry ownership will ensure your training stays closely aligned with workforce needs and continues to be shaped by the sectors we serve. 

MITO Limited is governed by a Board appointed by industry. The Board members are as follow:

  • Sturrock Saunders, Chairperson
  • Warren Flowerday, Deputy Chairperson 
  • Dean Eggers  
  • Jason Land  
  • Kim Milne  
  • Iain Haycock  
  • Warwick Wilshier
