InfraTrain
has revised the expiry dates of the unit standards listed above. The standards that had expired have been reinstated as
expiring with new expiry dates.
Date standards reinstated
November 2007
New expiry date
December 2012
Reason
for the reinstatement
These
standards had all been reviewed as Category C or D in October 2004, and 2005,
and had expired. However, there
were still a number of qualifications in which they were listed, that were in
the process of being reviewed.
A change to
the expiry dates was necessary to maintain credit worthiness of the old
standards in order to allow trainees to complete the currently registered
versions of qualifications, and to allow for transition.
Main
changes resulting from the revision
The expiry
dates of the standards have been extended.
Impact
on existing provider accreditations
None.
Impact
on Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan (AMAP)
AMAP 0101
has been updated to show the reinstated the standards.
Impact
on existing qualifications
The following InfraTrain NZ qualifications are affected and are currently under review. It is anticipated the reviews will be completed by December 2008.
