NZQA National Qualifications Services (NQS) has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published November 2009
Planned review date December 2015
Summary of review and consultation process
The review was prompted by the unit standards passing their planned review date. The review of the domain Supported Learning - Work and Community Skills was separated from the review of the other domains in Supported Learning due to the high usage of these unit standards.
This review was announced widely to stakeholder organisations (including Industry Training Organisations), and included an invitation to take part in the review. An expert panel was convened to conduct the review of the unit standards. Panel members consisted of representation from Institutes of Technology and Polytechnics, Secondary Schools, Private Training Establishments and the NZ Council of Trade Unions.
The review involved two panel meetings held in June and August of 2008. Recommendations were made and new drafts of the standards were developed and circulated to the wider network for consultation and endorsement.
Main changes resulting from the review
· Specific context has been added to all unit standard titles to avoid any potential for duplication with existing unit standards.
· Titles were amended to better reflect their outcome and provide context.
· Purpose statements and elements were amended to more accurately and clearly reflect the intended outcomes.
· Ranges were included or amended to clearly distinguish the items which need to be considered.
· Credits of some unit standards were amended to more accurately reflect actual time required for competence.
· Content of some unit standards was updated to reflect the use of new technology and the redundancy of old technology.
· Unit standards 11909, 11914, 11915, and 11918 were reclassified from the Supported Learning - Interpersonal and Social Skills domain to the Support Learning - Work and Community Skills domain. The outcomes these unit standards recognise are communication skills necessary for the workplace.
· A special note was included, where appropriate, to recommend that these unit standards be assessed in conjunction with other Supported Learning unit standards for integrated assessment.
· Unit standards 11863, 11868, 11870, and 11872 were designated expiring and will not be replaced. These were unit standards where the technology had changed, duplication had occurred, or the level of skill required was beyond level 1.
Unit standards categorised as category D expire at the end of December 2011.
