Summary of review and consultation process

 

Meetings involving Competenz, baking industry representatives, and provider representatives were convened early in 2003 to deliberate the review of Food and Related Products Processing unit standards specific to the baking industry.

 

During 2003 and 2004, feedback was received from industry and providers, matters raised incorporated into the review of the unit standards detailed above, and a course of action agreed upon.

 

The representatives consulted were asked to consider the following:

·        The currency of the unit standards and their suitability for existing and proposed qualifications.

·        The accuracy and appropriateness of their content.

·        How levels and credits fit with performance outcomes.

·        Any gaps in skills and/or knowledge that could be captured by the development of new unit standards.

 

Main changes resulting from the review

 

·        Improved special notes to better convey assessment parameters, including improved definitions, updated references to legislation, and the number of occasions/items required to show competence.

·        Improved and updated range statements, including clearer use of range statements that are mandatory, or are included to provide guidelines for the collection of evidence, in which case the range begins with may include but is not limited to.
