Review of unit standards in Micro and Macro Economics (Level 5)
Closed 24 May 2019
NZQA National Qualifications Services invites feedback on the proposed expiry of Economic Theory and Practice unit standards in Micro Economics and Macro Economics (Level 5).
This expiry is as a result of the regular review of these unit standards, which has indicated that their usage is dropping and little use is expected in the future.
