Sfrito Limited has revised the unit standards listed above.  The four unit standards will be moved to the Sport Teaching and Coaching domain.  The standards will also be rolled over to maintain their currency until they can be next reviewed.

 

Date new versions published                        November 2006

 

Planned review date                        December 2008

 

Reason for the revision

 

As a result of new unit standards being developed in the Sport subfield, the panel looked at the existing standards, and decided to change the classification for the unit standards above, as they were used primarily in coaching situations.

 

Main changes resulting from the revision

 

Unit standards 5366, 5367, 5370, and 5373 have had their classification changed from Sport Science and Technology to Sport Teaching and Coaching.

 

The opportunity was taken to amend minor typographical errors.
