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 further processing domain prior to a review of the meat processing qualifications due in 2005. Feedback identified that some unit standards did not reflect the notional learning time, that units with like processing tasks could be rationalised to cover multiple species, and that there was a need to include units 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
· Unit standards 2494, 2497, 2502, 4541 and 4543 have been replaced by new unit standard 21625.
· Unit standards 16452, 16455, 16481 and 16495 have been replaced by new unit standard 21626.
· Unit standard 4538 has been replaced by unit standard 21627.
· Unit standard 20242 reduced in level from 3 to 2.
· Changes have been made to special notes in some unit standards, including additions of ranges and definitions.
· Title of unit standard 20729 has been changed to reflect skill covered.
· The credit for unit standard 16480 has increased from 5 to 10.
Unit standards categorised as category C expire at the end of December 2006.
