The Association of Staff in Tertiary Education (ASTE) is a trade union founded in 1988 when the TCA (Teachers Colleges Association) and the NZAPT (NZ Association of Polytechnic Teachers) merged.
ASTE has members among the staff of several tertiary institutions and universities in NZ including Victoria, Massey, Waikato and Auckland.
ASTE and the Association of University Staff have merged at January 1, 2009 to form a single union. They are now known as the New Zealand Tertiary Education Union (NZTEU). Their website can be found here: http://teu.ac.nz/
