The Aviation, Tourism and Travel Training Organisation has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published December 2008
Planned review date December 2013
Summary of review and consultation process
The unit standards were due for review. Drafts of unit standards were circulated for feedback to the Casino Gaming Advisory Group, which comprised representatives from casinos of New Zealand. The aim was to determine and discuss whether existing unit standards were still fit for purpose and to identify any gaps within them.
The Group advised that two new casino table gaming units related to Poker for Level 3 and 4 qualifications needed to be developed. All feedback collected was considered and, where appropriate, incorporated into the unit standards. The Casino Gaming Advisory Group then endorsed these unit standards.
Main changes resulting from the review
The review process resulted in the following changes in the unit standards.
· Unit standard 9871 had its credit value decreased from 8 to 5 to better reflect the time taken to learn the required skills and knowledge.
· Unit standard 9875 had its credit value increased from 3 to 6 to better reflect the time taken to learn the required skills and knowledge.

· Unit standard 9895 was increased from Level 4 to Level 5 to reflect managerial and supervisory responsibility.
· Unit standards 9896 and 9897 were decreased from Level 4 to Level 3 to better align the required skills with the registration criteria.
· Two new casino table gaming units at Levels 3 and 4 were developed to cover poker.
· Legislation was updated.
· Amendments were made to titles, special notes, elements, performance criteria, and range statements.
· Unit standards 9880, 9881, 9890, 9891, 9899, 9904, 9907, 9908, and 19715 were designated expiring.
