The NZQA National Qualifications Services (NQS) has revised and rolled over the unit standards listed above, which were last registered in May 2000. (Note: The unit standards in bold have been rolled over with no change.)
The review of these unit standards is planned to take place during 2007-2008.
Date new versions published November 2004
New comments by date July 2007
Expiry date of new versions of the unit standards December 2008
The reason for the rollover and revision is to maintain the currency of the unit standards until they have been reviewed and give effect to recommendations made as part of the assessment and moderation processes associated with the standards over the last two years.
Main changes resulting from the revision
The revision has resulted in minor changes, particularly to special notes, performance criteria, and ranges, to clarify the parameters for assessment and moderation. Element 3 of unit standard 17360 has been merged into element 2, and the title of the standard has been altered to reflect this change. Unit standard 17372 has also had a minor title change, as shown in the summary table below.
Impact on existing provider accreditations
None.
Impact on Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan (AMAP)
None.
Impact on existing qualifications
None.
