The Electricity Supply Industry Training Organisation has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published December 2010
Planned review date December 2015
Summary
These unit standards were reviewed to ensure they remained relevant to industry. Industry was invited to participate in the review, and assessors were asked to comment on those standards they had assessed against. A notification of the standards being reviewed was also posted on the ESITO website. Due to little or no usage several of these standards were designated expiring and will not be replaced. Although there had been low usage of unit standard 17910 to date, industry confirmed the standard should be kept, as usage was expected to increase. Legislation and terminology were updated in the reviewed standards.
Main changes
· Explanatory notes and range statements were updated.
· Unit standards 17904, 17906-17909, 17912, and 17913 were designated expiring and will not be replaced.
Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2012
