Careerforce, the Community Support Services Industry Training Organisation Limited, has completed the review of the unit standard above.
Date new version published November 2010
Planned review date December 2016
Summary
In July 2010 Careerforce invited ten representatives from the disability sector to form a sector panel to evaluate the unit standards within the domain Practical and Professional Skills for Disability Support that were due for review. At a subsequent sector panel meeting held on 18 August 2010, unit standard 18674 was one of three identified by panel members as useful components of qualifications for the aged support, health, and disability sector. The panel reviewed this unit standard and made modifications to reflect current practice and confirm it as fit for purpose.
In version 2 of this unit standard the previous term disability has been replaced by impairment to reflect current definitions; and the terms pre-Christian and post-Christian have been replaced by traditional and contemporary respectively, to reflect current terminology, and to promote enhanced readability and flow.
The range statements of both outcomes have been expanded to include 'one holistic model of hauora' in order to ensure that candidates are aware of a model when explaining/describing Māori perceptions; and one evidence requirement has been removed from Outcome 1. The overall outcome of version 2 of this unit standard, however, remains the same as for version 1.
Main changes
· The title has been updated to reflect the changes made in the unit standard.
· References and terminology have been updated.
· The classification has been changed.
· Evidence requirements and range statements have been modified to better reflect current sector requirements.
