Revision of Commercial Road Transport qualification
National
Certificate in
Tranzqual ITO has revised the above
qualification.
Date new version published
December 2007
The next qualification review is planned to
take place during 2010.
Reason for the
revision
This qualification was revised in order to reinstate standard 6257, Operate a mounted front end loader unit for agricultural contracting. This standard had been removed at the last review (May 2005) but proved to be useful to industry.

Main changes resulting from the
revision
Changes to structure and content
· Standard 15164 was removed from the compulsory section.
·
Standard 24089 was added to the
compulsory section.
· Standard 6257 was added to the elective section.
· Standard 1734 was moved from the compulsory section to the elective section.
· Standards 1734, 1737, 3462, 3465, 6257, and 17574 were updated to reflect changes resulting from review.
