The ElectroTechnology Industry Training Organisation has completed the review of the unit standards listed above that were registered in May, October, and December 1996 and in April 1998.

Date new versions published July 2004

New comments by date December 2007

Expiry date of new versions of the unit standards December 2008

Summary of review and consultation process

The review began with a company survey regarding current skill needs. An expert working group was then formed involving industry, training provider, and assessor representation. Proposals were sent to all electronics companies in New Zealand, with meetings in four centres to gather feedback. There were meetings with representatives from the New Zealand Boating Industry Training Organisation regarding requirements in their sector, and with the Royal New Zealand Navy, a major user of the qualifications. The expert working group considered all feedback and endorsed the unit standard changes on 30 July 2003.

Because of the complexities and the need to maintain teaching programmes, the changes encompass three stages. Stage 1 now completed, covered the changes required by the review of the National Certificate in Electronics Technology (Intermediate) (Level 3) [Ref: 0408]. Stage 2, detailed in this review summary, covers all remaining unit standards in the lapsing domains of Communications and Radar Electronics, Consumer Electronics, Core Electronics, and Electronic Office Automation associated with the changes required by the review of the National Certificate in Electronics Technology (Level 4) with strands in Communications and Radar, Consumer Products, and Office Automation [Ref: 0409].

Stage 3 covers all remaining unit standards in the lapsing Electronics Technology Subfield not covered by Stage 1 and Stage 2. These are currently under review.

Main changes resulting from the review

The review process resulted in the following changes to the unit standards.

· Designation of the Communications and Radar Electronics domain in the Electronics Technology subfield, as lapsing. Some of the unit standards were moved to the Electronic Installation and Maintenancedomain in the Electronic Engineering subfield; the remainder were designated as expiring.

· Designation of the Consumer Electronicsdomain in the Electronics Technology subfield, as lapsing. One unit standard was moved to the Electronic Installation and Maintenance domain in the Electronic Engineering subfield; the remainder were designated as expiring.

· Designation of the Core Electronics domain in the Electronics Technology subfield as lapsing. Some of the unit standards were moved to the Core Electronics, Electronic Installation and Maintenance, and Electronics Technology domains in the Electronic Engineering subfield, some were left to expire, and the remainder are currently under review.

· Designation of the Electronic Office Automationdomain in the Electronics Technology subfield as lapsing. All the unit standards in this domain were designated as expiring.

· The designation of Unit 5936, Carry out soldering and de-soldering procedures in the electronics service industry, as expiring, as this unit standard is adequately covered by Unit 15849, Perform manual soldering and de‑soldering procedures for electrical work, which is in the Core Electrical domain.

· The designation of Unit 6057, Service and repair microwave ovens, as expiring, as this unit standard is adequately covered by Unit 1189, Service microwave ovens, in the Electrical Appliance Servicing domain.

· The designation of Unit 8188, Demonstrate electronics workplace etiquette, as expiring, as this unit standard is adequately covered by Unit 57, Provide customer service in given situations, which is in the Service Sector - Core Skills domain.

· The designation of a further 43 unit standards, which are no longer considered fit for purpose, as expiring.
Note: The table at the end of this review report indicates alternative unit standards where knowledge and skills in many of the expiring unit standards are covered in whole or in part.

· Changes to some unit standard titles to better reflect the assessment outcome.

· Adjustment of the levels and credit values of some unit standards to reflect the complexity and notional learning time more accurately.

· Clarification of elements, performance criteria, range statements, and special notes in some unit standards to improve assessability.

· Registration of 15 new unit standards.

Unit standards categorised as category D expire at the end of December 2010.

Impact on Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan (AMAP)

AMAP 0003 was updated to reflect the changes made to the standards.

Impact on existing qualifications

The following ElectroTechnology Industry Training Organisation qualifications are affected by this review. They are either under review, or scheduled to be reviewed.

Qualification Title
National Certificate in Electrical Engineering (Electrician) (Level 4) [Ref: 0313]
National Certificate in Electronics Technology (Intermediate) (Level 3) [Ref. 0408]
National Certificate in Electronics Technology (Level 3) [Ref: 1005]
National Certificate in Electronics Technology (Level 4) with strands in Communications and Radar, Consumer Products, and Office Automation [Ref: 0409]
National Certificate in Industrial Measurement and Control (Level 4) [Ref: 0410]
National Diploma in Engineering (Level 6) with strands in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Industrial Measurement and Control, and Telecommunications [Ref: 0846]

Other Standard Setting Bodies whose qualifications are affected by this review were advised of the need to make changes to their qualifications.

Qualifications that specify the classifications of Electronics Technology and Core Electronics will need to be updated to reflect the new classifications and the impacts of the review on the standards.

The transition arrangements will take account of the following.

Credit for unit standards in the subfield Electronics Technology will continue to meet the requirements of this qualification, where credit from subfield Electronic Engineering is specified.

Credit for unit standards in the domain Core Electronics in subfield Electronics Technology will continue to meet the requirements of these qualifications where credit from domains Core Electronics or Electronics Technology in subfield Electronic Engineering is specified.

The transition information for qualifications that specify lapsing classifications in their rules would be as follows.

This qualification contains classifications that replace earlier classifications. For the purposes of this qualification, people who have gained credit for standards in the lapsing or lapsed classifications may use those credits to meet requirements relating to the replacement classifications.

Credits for standards in	Count towards qualification requirements where the following is specified
Engineering and Technology/Electronics Technology	Engineering and Technology/Electronic Engineering
Engineering and Technology/Electronics Technology/Core Electronics	Engineering and Technology/Electronic Engineering/Core Electronics
	Engineering and Technology/Electronic Engineering/Electronics Technology
