The Primary Industry Training Organisation has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Summary
Consent to assess holders were contacted again in March 2021 and notified of the pending unit standard expiry. There was no feedback received or any requests to retain the units. The unit standards were therefore expired.
Main changes
· Unit standards were expired due to little or no usage in the last two years, and no anticipated usage in the future.
Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2023
