Please note: Candidates have additional costs associated with transport to and from the course and during the course; food and accommodation (including hut fees).

The course fees that NZOIA charges cover less than half the cost to run the qualification scheme. 
This includes: 

• Assessor fees and expenses; travel to venue, food and accommodation
• Organisational and administrative costs related to the qualification scheme
• Operational costs of the Technical Sub Committee - the group responsible for monitoring, developing and managing the qualification scheme
• Assessor Training and Moderation

Currently NZOIA absorbs over 50% of the course costs. This is achieved through significant effort being invested by the board and staff to reduce costs and access funding from organisations such as Sport NZ.
