Date new version published                                                             June 2006

 

The next qualification review is planned to take place during 2007.

 

Reason for the revision

 

The qualification has been issued as version 3 in order to amend the transition. The exemption table has been amended, as an exemption for unit standard 21559 was included in version 2 in error (unit standard 21559 is not in the qualification).  A last date for award of version 1 has also been included.

 

Transition

 

People currently working towards version 1 of this qualification may either complete the requirements of that version, or transfer their results to version 2 or 3.

 

The last date for award of version 1 is 31 December 2008.
