Summary of development/review and consultation process

The sole provider of programmes leading to these qualifications initiated this review by contacting Hanga Aro-Rau WDC requesting the extension of the last date of assessment to superseded versions of  the above qualifications.

The extension allows this provider to enrol ākonga in programmes leading to the qualification and allows time for this provider to complete a series of unification transformation pilots.

The extension ensures ākonga are not disadvantaged and enables this provider to avoid duplication of effort for programme and resource redevelopment while focussing on the Unification of Programme of Work.

 

Main changes resulting from the development/review process

The last date of assessment for version 2 of these qualifications has been extended from 31 December 2023 to 31 December 2025.

The last date of assessment for version 3 of these qualifications has been extended from 31 December 2023 to 31 December 2025.

The qualification developer details were updated from Competenz to Hanga-Aro-Rau WDC.
