The Hospitality Standards Institute has revised the unit standard above.

 

Date new version published                                                             April 2009

 

Planned review date                                                                           December 2013

 

Reason for the revision

 

This revision is to meet industry expectations for the standard and clarify the assessment environment requirements for assessors.  Special note 4 in this standard is generic to all Level 2 standards under AMAP 112.  It was added to all Hospitality subfield standards at Level 2, following publication of version 4 of the AMAP, in 2008.  However, this standard relates specifically to commercial espresso equipment, which have features and capabilities not found in domestic coffee appliances.  Therefore the standard has been revised to ensure these requirements are explicit.

 

Main changes resulting from the revision

 

The word 'equipment' has been replaced with 'commercial equipment' in the title, purpose statement, special note 4 and elements.

 

Impact on existing provider accreditations

 

None.

 

Impact on existing qualifications

 

The following HSI qualification is not materially affected by the changes.  It will be updated when it is next reviewed.
