The Electricity Supply Industry Training Organisation has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.

 

Date new versions published                                                          May 2010

 

Summary

 

These unit standards were reviewed to ensure they remained relevant to industry. However, these standards have had very little or no usage over the past five years and therefore ESITO do not believe there is any further need for them by industry.  Industry were advised of the planned expiry of these standards via the ESITO website.

 

Main changes

 

·      All standards were designated expiring.

 

Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2012

 

Impacts on existing accreditations, Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan (AMAP), and registered qualifications

 

None.

Key to review category

A

Dates changed, but no other changes are made - the new version of the standard carries the same ID and a new version number

B

Changes made, but the overall outcome remains the same - the new version of the standard carries the same ID and a new version number

C

Major changes that necessitate the registration of a replacement standard with a new ID

D

Standard will expire and not be replaced
