Summary of review and consultation process
A unit standard review meeting was convened in October 2004 in Christchurch. The meeting was attended by representatives of the Meat Processing Advisory Group, which consists of training staff from the key meat processing organisations, independent trainers and assessors, and industry providers. The focus of the review was to identify unit standards in the slaughter domain that did not reflect the notional learning time, similar unit standards that could be rationalised, and those that required amending to meet current industry requirements. In an effort to meet these needs the changes listed below were made to the unit standards after being promulgated through the wider provider and industry networks for final feedback.
Main changes resulting from the review
· Minor editorial changes have been made throughout the content of the unit standards.
· Unit standard 2485 has been replaced by two role-specific unit standards 20199 and 21323.
· Unit standards 2478, 2484, 2489, 4530, and 16462 have been replaced by new unit standard 21326.
· Unit standards 3093, 3095, 4513, 4520, and 4528 have been replaced by new unit standard 21325.
· Changes have been made to special notes in some unit standards, including additions of ranges and definitions.
· The title of unit standard 4516 has been changed to reflect the skill covered.
· The credit level for unit standard 16496 has increased from 3 to 15 due to task complexity and re-evaluation of learning and assessment time required.
· Element 1 has been removed from unit standard 16472.
· Elements and performance criteria have been amended to meet the specific skills required, to improve clarity, and for consistency of style within the batch.
Unit standards categorised as category C expire at the end of December 2006.
