PrintNZ Training has completed the review of the above unit standards.
Date new versions published August 2008
Planned review date December 2013
Summary of review and consultation process
These unit standards were reviewed in association with the review of the National Certificate in Print Industry Management (Level 4) [Ref: 0912]. Unit standards 16765 and 16768 had passed their planned review date.
A notice of the intended review was placed in the PrintNZ Training newsletter. A survey was posted on PrintNZ Training's website and sent to all relevant industry bodies including PrintNZ, NZ Print Finishers Association, NZ Paperboard Packaging Association, Newspaper Publishers Association, Employers, Printing and Manufacturers Union, Self Adhesive Label Manufacturers Association, Trust 4 Skills, Business Forms Association of NZ, NZ Paper Forum, and the Graphic Arts Pre-press Federation.
Feedback was received, collated, and presented to a panel which included trainees, assignment markers, registered workplace assessors, employers, and mentors of the full PrintNZ training programme.
The group was asked to consider the following:
· The currency of the unit standards and their suitability for the existing and any proposed qualifications.
· The accuracy and appropriateness of the content.
· Whether the level and credits correspond to performance outcomes.
· Any gaps in skills and/or knowledge that could be captured by the development of new unit standards.
It was agreed that the three unit standards in this application were out of date and no longer met industry requirements. It was decided that a new unit standard would be developed at level 5, credit 25, to replace the existing unit standards.
Main changes resulting from the review
· Unit standards 16764, 16765, and 16768 have been replaced by unit standard 25011.
Unit standards categorised as category C expire at the end of December 2010.
Impact on existing qualifications
None.
All changes are in bold.
