NZQA National Qualifications Services has reclassified, revised and rolled over the unit standards listed above.  The rollover is to maintain their currency until they are reviewed.

 

Date new versions published                                                          July 2008

 

Planned review date                                                                           December 2012

 

Reason for the revision

 

As part of the restructuring of Field Business, Subfield Management was designated 'Expiring'.  As a result, the unit standards in domains Employment Relations and Quality Management need to be reclassified.  The opportunity was taken to consult stakeholders about these changes and other minor issues pending a full review in 2011-2012.

 

Main changes resulting from the revision

 

This revision has made some changes to the unit standards, including:

·         updating legislation, references, and ISO standards

·         correcting errors

·         increasing the credit allocation to unit standard 19797 to more fairly reflect the time needed to gain competence.
