What happened to Shanan’s MBA?

Had a phone call from a reader. He was reading up on the candidates for Northcote and checked out their Linked In profiles. He saw a MBA from AUT listed for Shanan Halbert (the Labour candidate). He checked out the AUT graduate page and they do not have Halbert as a graduate.

He then checked back Halbert’s Linked In page the next day, and the MBA mention was gone. So looks like tracks being covered. However the Internet tends to leave footprints.

But a Holaconnect page for for Halbert says:

Education
Master of Business Administration (MBA)@Auckland University of Technology

It looks likes Hola takes their info from Linked In every so often.

Also a week ago a commenter on this blog seemed to be quoting a CV when he said:

Shanan Halbert was the Labour candidate for Northcote in 2017.

He will be 36 this month. Halbert was chairman of the Maori Council from May 2015 to November 2016.

His education includes a B.A. in education from the University of Auckland and an MBA from AUT.

I’m not sure what his source was, but it does add to the evidence that the claims to have an MBA was out there.

Below is a screen shot from Hola in case that gets edited also.
