The National Qualifications Services (NQS)
of the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) has completed the review of
the above unit standard.
Date new versions published
September 2007
Planned review date
December 2010
Summary of review and consultation
process
NQS decided in 2004 that a review of
Business Administration unit standards and qualifications was warranted because
of the following factors.
·
Their high use across a range of
contexts
·
The fact that they had not been reviewed
since 1999 and the consequent need to ensure requirements were consistent with
current technology and business conditions
·
Feedback received from the sector
recommending changes.
Unit standard 11651 and two related draft
new standards were held back from the review as they needed further work, which
has now been completed in association with key stakeholders (including
providers), the original review panel, and the wider consultation networks. As a result, the three unit standards
have been condensed into two: 11651 and 21864.
The original review was completed and the
unit standards were re-registered in September 2005. That review report is accessible at http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/nqfdocs/summaries/2005/sep05/revsumsep05-05.html.
Main changes resulting from the
review
·
The unit standard has been refocused more
explicitly on international travel, and the new standard 21864 has been
developed to focus explicitly on domestic travel. Title and element statements have been
amended to better reflect these outcomes.
·
Terminology has been updated as
appropriate. Evidence requirements
have been amended where necessary to reflect current technology and, where
possible, to allow for future changes.
·
Assessment requirements have been clarified,
rationalised, and more logically organised as appropriate. The special note requiring on-job
assessment is deliberate; because of the complexity and risks particularly
associated with international travel, workplace assessment is
necessary.
Impact on existing provider
accreditations
None.
Impact on Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan
(AMAP)
None.
Impact on existing
qualifications
None.
All
changes are in bold.
